Module:Sandbox/AbstractWikipedia/Phonotactics/he/doc

This is the Hebrew-phonotactics module of the Abstract Wikipedia Scribunto-based NLG prototype. For other phonotactics modules see the main page.

The Hebrew implementation takes care of certain orthographic and phonotactic alternations happening after Hebrew proclitics. It scans the list of lexemes and if a proclitic, identified by its lemma, is found, the following lexemes may be altered in the following ways:

• Spaces following proclitics are removed.
• The definite article (identified by its part-of-speech) is removed following certain proclitics.
• If the proclitic is followed by a number spelled out by digits, a hyphen is added, in accordance with Hebrew's orthographic conventions.
• If a proclitic is followed by a word starting with the letter Vav, that letter is doubled, in accordance with Hebrew's writing rules of unvocalized text.
