It would probably be something in the "Text" of "Lingua" namespace,
and it
would probably include something like "Translations" or "Parallel".
I tend to think of language things in Lingua and text processing in
Text, so I'd lean towards Lingua. After that, my first thought was the
unwieldy:
Lingua::Translation::Identify
or
Lingua::Translation::Compare
I'm not sure if it makes sense to shorten it to the existing
Lingua::Translate namespace for consistency sake:
Lingua::Translate::Identify
Lingua::Translate::Compare
As I look at this, I lean slightly towards "compare" since it definitely
compares, but doesn't necessarily "identify".
Often, 'similar' is used in this context, algorithms that compare or
rate things for equivelance.
Lingua::Text::Similar
Lingua::Translation::Similar
