You could use 2 easy method 1) make a dictionary of common words for every language and test it against the sentence. If a language has multiple match against more words, then probably that is the language is written in;
2) (maybe a fallback if previous method didn't work or was not useful) every language has a particular frequency of some letter - eg. in english i think the letter "e" is very common. you should find this rules (with google) and apply to your case. those are just ideas, hope helped anyway On Nov 11, 9:48 am, alan lam <[email protected]> wrote: > Is there any function/library/API which can detect the language of a > particular piece of text (no internet connection)? > i.e. for an input text "This is a sentence", it should detect the > language as "English". > Or for "Esto es una sentencia" it should detect the language as > "Spanish". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
