Project: Extend lttoolbox to have the power of HFST

Guidelines

  • Every rule in the dictionary file must be properly compatible with the the HFST twolc engine and must not result in any ambiguities.
  • The xml tags must be well defined for archiphonemes and rules.
  • Every rule should have a comment giving the input from the morphotactics no exceptions

Design

Archiphonemes

<archiphoneme>
  <ar n="A" alpha="ae"/>
  <ar n="B" alpha="bcd"/>
</archiphoneme>

Sets

<sets>
  <set n="Vowels" alpha="aeiou"/>
  <set n="BackVow" alpha="bcdfg"/>
</sets>
