Hi,
I'm creating an open source spell checker (http://sourceforge.net/projects/netspell/)
in C# .net and I've integrated the phonetic code that aspell uses. My
question is, what was the technique that would allow the use of affix as well as
phonetic codes? It was mentioned in this list that a way had been
found. I have another questions about the aspell dictionaries, do they
cache the phonetic code in the dictionary or is it calculated every iteration
through the dictionary? My thought on how to combine affix with phonetic
codes was to cache the phonetic code for the base word in the dictionary as well
as cache the phonetic code for the affix in the affix definition
file. Then, when generated suggestions, merge the affix code with the
base word code and compare it with the test word code. If match, it is a
suggestion. Is this the same idea that aspell would use?
thanks
Paul
