Public bug reported: The text used for word prediction in Italian [1] is IMHO not very suitable for the goal of predicting words typed into computers nowadays (especially on phones), fo a few reasons:
- it's very old -- from 1868; particles like "cotesto", "pel", "pei" are not used anymore - it's mostly written in the "passato remoto" past tense, which is not that common in modern speech - it talks about history, with ample use of long and rarely used words. - dialogues are entirely missing I think it should be changed with a modern text, not without dialogues. Does this have to be a single book, or can we assemble a few different texts together (i'm thinking about adding some pieces from newspapers, blogs and short novels, mostly)?
