Hello, Over the last couple of months, I have been working with a group of people at Indicus Analytics on getting a Hindi spellchecker to function properly. From their end, this will be deployed on http://raftaar.com but the improvements will also be contributed back to the open-source aspell spellchecker. There is a lot of work to be done in formulating the rules, and in testing them to come up with an optimal set. We also need to define a metric for the quality of a spellchecker. A beginning for this work has been written up on the Sarai CyberMohalla Wiki at http://cmwiki.sarai.net/index.php/SpellCheck . Please feel free to add to this, send me comments, or to discuss it online, preferrably on the prc list. The ideas that come out of such a discussion will also be applicable to spellchecking in other Indian languages.
