Keep stress symbols?

[dreamk73]

Is there a way for the tokeniser to keep the stress symbols in the IPA transcription?

Not at the moment, but I would be happy to fix this. The question is whether:

• a stress marker should be a token on its own; for example:

  >>> tokenise('ˈkeˌke')
  ['ˈ', 'k', 'e', 'ˌ', 'k', 'e']
  

• or it should be combined with the first letter of its syllable; for example:

  >>> tokenise('ˈkeˌke')
  ['ˈk', 'e', 'ˌk', 'e']
  

I assume the first option would make it easier to process the output further, but I have not worked with stress, so if you say otherwise I would implement it accordingly.

I would prefer the first solution where they are tokens on their own.
