------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Feb 7 12:56:56 -0800 2006 ------- Hi Simon, > In "a1atje./a=t,1,3", the part "a1atje." specifies the pattern on which the > rule > applies (i.e. "aatje" at the end of a word), and the part "a=t,1,3" means that > the 3 letters in this pattern starting at position 1 ("aat") are replaced by > the > hyphenated sequence "a=t" i.e. aatje -> a=tje Yes, it does. > What does the '1' in the pattern mean? Odd numbers sign break points in Liang's algorithm. For a hyph_nl_NL patch, you will need big odd numbers to set discretionary patterns on. See README.hyphen in the attached library. > Can I simply add rules like this at the end of hyph_nl_NL.dic? Yes, you can, but the result must be processed with the substrings.pl program. First, you need some hyphenation pattern analysis: ]$ grep e[0-9]*e[0-9]*t[0-9]*j[0-9] hyph_nl_NL.dic .pee5tj2 ee3tj2 hee3tj2 plee5tj2 slee5tj2 $ grep e[0-9]e[0-9] hyph_nl_NL.dic .al3e4e4 .met5e4e2 .ne4e4 .on4te4e2 .op5e4e4 .p4e4e4 .s4e4e3 afe4e4 a3ge4e4 ave4e4 ... Even numbers sign "no break" points. We need greater odd number, than 4 to permit discretionary hyphenation: e5etje/é=t,1,3 a5atje/a=t,1,3 (there are also an other discretionary hyphenation group in Dutch: ``Dutch has two unusual hyphenations: The diminutive tje (for example) strootje is hyphenated stro-tje the final o of the first syllable being deleted in the hyphenated word. Where the gei(diaeresis), transliterated (geI), geu(diaereses), transliterated (geU), gee(diaeresis), transliterated (geE), koo(diaeresis), transliterated (koO), hyphenate ge-i, ge-e, ge-u and ko-o the second vowel having lost the diaeresis.'': http://www.hyphenologist.co.uk/man-4-415.htm) If you need some exception, you can add patterns with a greater even number signed hyphenation point: example6etje (not break point) or examle7etje (not discretionary hyphenation) See also README.discretionary in the altlinuxHyph2.tar.gz. I also suggest making a Dutch test file.
