Category: None Group: None >Status: Pending Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Mahesh (maheshrpatel) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Country variant grammar Initial Comment: For most of the supported languages there is a country variant String array. Do you plan to support country variant grammar rules like you would have in spelling? Also do the rules currently specify the country variant for which it applies or do they apply countries to all by default? e.g. May be identified as errors by a British-English grammar checker, but not a US-English grammar checker: (1) The names given to the characters were “Annabelle,” “Zach,” and “Cody.” (2) She practiced playing the saxophone (3) I lost my key Rationale (1) The sentence uses US-English punctuation (where punctuation appears inside of quotation marks) (2) The sentence uses the noun ‘practice’ instead of the verb ‘practise’ (a distinction not recognised in US English) (3) In British English, the sentence should include have – i.e. I’ve lost my key May be identified as errors by a US-English Grammar Checker, but not a British-English grammar checker: (1) The names given to the characters were “Annabelle”, “Zach”, and “Cody”. (2) He’s got much better at tennis (3) He had a sawn-off shotgun Rationale (1) The sentence uses British-English punctuation (where punctuation appears outside of quotation marks) (2) In US English, the past participle of ‘get’ is ‘gotten’ – i.e. He’s gotten much better at tennis (3) In US English, the past participle of ‘saw’ is ‘sawed’ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Marcin Miłkowski (milek_pl) Date: 2012-06-01 06:11 Message: There is some progress for this in upcoming version 1.8: we have support for specifying country variants. Moreover, British and American spellers (different ones) have been added. The only thing missing is support for variants in XML rule files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=655720&aid=3287388&group_id=110216 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
