Those are the results you will get if you don't specify the language of the text, and the system concludes that there is insufficient text to confidently identify the language.

Re: Natural language
Hi, All.
I've implemented some sample code using NSLinguisticTagger class and i've found
some weird behavior.
I'me using the following code to analyze a simple english phrase:
NSRange textrange = NSMakeRange(0, [phrase length]);
[tagger enumerateTagsInRange:textrange
scheme:NSLinguisticTagSchemeLexicalClass
options:0
usingBlock:
^(NSString *wordType,
NSRange wordRange,
NSRange sentenceRange, BOOL *stop)
{
if(wordType == NSLinguisticTagNoun)
{
// Show tag
}
if(wordType == NSLinguisticTagPronoun)
{
// Show tag
}
if(wordType ==
NSLinguisticTagDeterminer)
{
// Show tag
}
…etc for each NSLinguisticSomething
constant.
}];
If I analyze the phrase: "I am a woman" I got the correct result :
I --> pronoun
am --> verb
A --> determiner
woman --> noun
but if i analyze the phrase: "I am a man" I got the result:
I --> otherword
am --> otherword
a --> otherword
man --> otherword.
I've initialized the NSLinguisticTagger class as follow:
NSArray *tagScheme = [NSArray
arrayWithObjects:NSLinguisticTagSchemeLexicalClass,
NSLinguisticTagSchemeNameType,
NSLinguisticTagSchemeLanguage, nil];
tagger = [[NSLinguisticTagger alloc] initWithTagSchemes:tagScheme
options:0];
So where is my mistake? Why I get an error if I try to analyze a simple phrase
like "I am a man"?
The behavior is the same on the device (iOS 5.0.1) and on the simulator. I'm
using MaOS X 10.7.2 with Xcode 4.2.
Thanks for any answer.
Luca.

displaying natural language time intervals
I feel like this has been asked on cocoa-dev before, but I haven't found it. I want to be able to display a date as "3 seconds ago", "1 hour ago", etc. I could roll my own solution but I wonder if someone has already made some classes available to do this? It would be nice if there is a built-in solution that takes care of internationalization, but the only remotely related thing I've found is the *NaturalLanguage* methods in NSDateFormatter, and the docs fall just short of advising us to avoid them like the plague. --Andy ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Re: NSDates and natural language ...
Hi Laurent, I don't think I can achieve what I'm looking for with NSDateFormatter unless I subclass it and implement my own mehtods, which is what I'm looking to avoid if there's already an existing project out there.

NSDates and natural language ...
Hi, Is anyone aware of any frameworks/classes that have been released that allow you to return natural language from a date ? What I mean by this is if, for example, I pass todays date it would return 'Today', yesterdays date would return 'Yesterday', 25th March 08 would return 'Last week' etc I know I can work this out manually using NSTimeInterval, some calculations and plenty of if statements but I was hoping there was already something out there.
