Hy-phen-ation made easy

Pyphen is a pure Python module to hyphenate text using existing Hunspell hyphenation dictionaries.

This module is a fork of python-hyphenator, written by Wilbert Berendsen.

Many dictionaries are included in pyphen, they come from the LibreOffice git repository and are distributed under GPL, LGPL and/or MPL. Dictionaries are not modified in this repository. See the dictionaries and LibreOffice's repository for more details.
