allow hyphens

Open bennn opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

Hyphens should either:

  • build large words from smaller words
  • introduce syllables in a word, if those syllables didn't exist already

(We can maybe skip checking "syllables already exist?", and rely on users to not put hyphens where there's already a syllable break.)

Does anything in the DB already have hyphens? If so, need to

  1. Check the DB for the full, hyphenated & normalized word
  2. Check for the full word with hyphens collapsed. On success, use hyphens to add more syllables
  3. Split by hyphens & check DB for those.

(ugh, 2 will be annoying to implement)
