[aspell-devel] changes to the beginnings of words

[Jim Killock]

Hi All,

I'm making a preliminary (and not very teccie) enquiry into a specific need for six languages that is not currently supported in Aspell.

This is mutations - in Welsh, Gaelic, Scots Gaelic, Manx, Cornish and Breton the *first letter* of many words changes according to context.

At the moment the Breton and Welsh Aspell dictionaries list all these words in all their states ie

Cymraeg, Gymraeg, Chymraeg. Nghymraeg

etc.

Algorithms exist to make these comparisons and even to do this according to grammatical context.

I'm wondering how much work (for someone competent) it would be to add to Aspell the ability to make these comparisons properly?

Thanks

Jim
