What's the best approach to start adding entries to the German monodix?
- A good way would be to stat writing a script to download Wiktionary entries for German nouns and converting them into speling format, e.g.
Bett; Bett; sg.nom; n.nt Bett; Bettes; sg.gen; n.nt Bett; Betts; sg.gen; n.nt Bett; Bett; sg.dat; n.nt Bett; Bett; sg.acc; n.nt Bett; Betten; pl.nom; n.nt Bett; Betten; pl.gen; n.nt Bett; Betten; pl.dat; n.nt Bett; Betten; pl.acc; n.nt Haus; Haus; sg.nom; n.nt Haus; Hauses; sg.gen; n.nt Haus; Haus; sg.gen; n.nt Haus; Haus; sg.dat; n.nt Haus; Haus; sg.acc; n.nt Haus; Häuser; pl.nom; n.nt Haus; Häuser; pl.gen; n.nt Haus; Häusern; pl.dat; n.nt Haus; Häuser; pl.acc; n.nt
- There are around 15,000 entries in the category German nouns, so that should be a good start. - Francis Tyers 07:13, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
- Another thing you can do is make lists of closed category words that don't inflect (E.g. prepositions, conjunctions) and also of abbreviations. - Francis Tyers 07:15, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
