Hi,

Look at the crossproduct flag you set in the .aff file. If you set them to N (for no) you can prevent unwanted combinations of prefix and suffix with root words. This will result in a larger .dic file.

I am not sure I understand the remainder of your question.

Kevin

ps. I have been very very busy over the last 6 months and have not had the time to volunteer to this project that I used to. So please re-state your question and ask again and I will try to help in my next spare moment.

Hi,

dic contains:
dazugehÃren/Db
dazugehÃren/IXY


This is not allowed for in MySpell. All root words in the dictionary
must be unique. This is always possible by simply expanding one of the
two sets of affixes if for some reason they can't be merged into one
entry just by merging affixes.

And in the same time, especially in cases when by some disastrous thoght you
decided to use the PFX keys also, munch is giving you some kind of well
organized trash: under some circumstances it decides that the _form_ of the
root word with PFX keys must be presented along with the root word having full
PFX/SFX asset. This often ends with many unnecessary dic entries which one have
to hunt down by grep-ing them out.


It was described somewhere. But i as a non-linguist can not get the point of why
to PFX is given the same priority as to SFX? May be someone could give me
explanation as Mr. Hendricks is not answering on my questions.


P.S. I can agree that the aff file of lv_LV is not designed in the way which
corresponds to the MySpell idea, but it works. Here are still questions, for
example - what to do in cases when 3 different root words in three different
declinations are giving the same form. May be re-desing everything based on the
roots of the words and not the root-words which by my understanding is the basic
form of the word, something like courir (Fr, which with its horrors of grammar
can be comapred with Lv).
