Readme for brassica-1.0.0
[back to package description]Brassica
Brassica is a sound change applier: a program to simulate the evolution of language over time.
Brassica’s features include:
- A choice of four different platforms: you can use Brassica interactively online or as a standalone application, non-interactively on the command-line, or as a Haskell library
- Being well-tested, including several automated test suites, as well as example files with sound changes from natural languages
- First-class support for suprasegmental features, such as stress and tone
- Easy control over rule application: apply sound changes iteratively, sporadically, right-to-left, between words, and in many more ways
- Native support for the MDF dictionary format, also used by tools including SIL Toolbox and Lexique Pro
- A comprehensive user interface with live preview and highlighting for both sound changes and output
- Comes with a paradigm builder for quickly investigating inflectional and other patterns
And many more!
See the documentation for details on Brassica usage, and the example files for examples of practical usage.
