Tool to explore using several different algorithms for parsing orthographic words into syllables. It can also insert discretionary hyphens in words.
Features
- Can get word lists from ParaTExt and FLEx
- Can see predicted syllabification and quickly compare to correct syllabification
- Can export hyphenated words for use by ParaTExt and InDesign
- Runs on Linux, Mac,and Windows.
- Can syllabify thousands of words per second.
- Can backup and restore datasets. The backup can include a comment about what the state was at the time.
- Can compare what is different between two backups (or the current implementation and a backup)
- Can be used as a spelling checker (if a word will not syllabify, it may have a typo). (Noted by David J. Weber in http://www.sil.org/resources/publications/entry/29601)
