[Feature Request] Parsing Old Kana Orthography (歴史的仮名遣い) to Modern Kana Orthography (現代仮名遣い) #2285
Comments
I'm not a developer of Yomichan, but this is a related question to the developers: how feasible/reasonable would it be to allow users to provide their own As for me personally, I personally want to remove |
I've simply made an account to submit a suggestion; I have no knowledge in regards to coding or computer science. What is a deinflect.json in layman's terms? |
It's just a file that defines the inflections that allow conjugated words to be properly parsed by Yomichan. You can see the file here, it should be more or less self explanatory: https://github.com/FooSoft/yomichan/blob/master/ext/data/deinflect.json |
To Whom It May Concern:
Good day.
I would like to suggest an optional feature that enables one to parse words that are written in old orthography and automatically convert it into its modern respective variants. For example: 言ふ into 言う, だつた into だった, and でせう into でしょう ad nauseam. One can always, of course, manually convert the words into its modern orthography by using the Yomichan search feature, which in the end, destroys the purpose of pop-up dictionaries which is to look up words in the matter of seconds. On the other hand, automatic conversion from old orthography into modern othography would enable one to see dictionary entries and thus add words into Anki instantaneously. In addition, creating new dictionaries in their old orthography would also become unnecessary as this feature would allow one to use current dictionaries without any changes at all.
Thank you for reading and I'm looking forward for your response.
