It needs we in the team need to review the PR. I will do so when you manage to make the test suite pass. I just contributed #174 , that will help you figure out what is left to do on your next push or if you close and reopen this PR.

okay,

so i partly solved a problem
given i have this during actual use:

$ php artisan api-platform:generate
"Adres"
"Afbeelding"
"Link"
"Locatie"
"Politiebureau"
"PolitiebureausLocatie"
"Translation"
"Twitter"
"Wijkagent"
"WijkagentenLinks"
"WijkagentenLocatie"
"WijkagentenTranslations"

(this is from https://github.com/noud/politie-open-data-api)

see the correct "Adres" there
and the failing one in test.

Please kindly squash your commits together. If you don't, we'll try to remember to do it for you but it's best if you save us this trouble.

How to do that?

  1. git rebase -i origin/master, assuming origin is a git remote that points to this repository, and not your fork. If you're not sure what your remotes are, run git remote -vvv, there should be your fork and the holy/reference/base/origin/whatever-you-call-it repository.
  2. A window will show up with many lines, replace pick with fixup on every line but the first one
  3. Close your editor, git should do its magic, and you should end up with one commit
  4. Use git push --force to overwrite what you already push. Don't forget the --force option otherwise git will try to merge both things together.

This indeed needs to be a rule instead of specific exceptions for these words, for example wee, zee, twee, drie, theorie etc.

for now i see 2 rules:

  • wee, zee, twee
  • drie, theorie
    but did not make it into rules yet, given i do not know yet if that does conflict other words.

This and the word above should be a rule. Also includes words like ooglid (and other samples of ~lid)

@greg0ire can this be related to:

@SenseException

I can't tell anything about the language, but under this premise we should still proceed with this PR even if we can't find someone who can review the parts of the dutch language.

Please also check the failing coding style build.

maybe my previous reply got lost, error on me.

Given the large number of comments, it seems that there will be a significant amount of work to finish this, right?

Maybe this sounds a bit lame and half work done?

Not going to lie, it does 😬 Why should people use this in production if it only has a 50/50 chance of doing the job properly? Won't this generate a lot of support?

i did read somewhere someone in the known to doctrine gave up on German his own language

Can you find this again? I think it wouldn't make sense to accept a PR on Dutch if German was rejected in a similar case, would it?

TimoBakx commented Dec 4, 2020

There is a lot of work still ahead. I think it would be best to implement more rules before merging this. I would love to help out if you want. I have little knowledge of the syntax for the rules, perhaps we could work on this together and improve it for at least most of the rules and hopefully quite a few exceptions.

As it is right now, with some rules for quite common words missing, I don't think it's a good idea to accept/merge this.

support.
For one i think most dutch projects are done in English.
Second i welcome any issues to pick them up. (mind is as we all know free and spare time work)
And, as i experience myself, i have over 50% good results and for sure in dev environment are already a little happy w/ that.
(furthermore i think if anyone keeps the stanza it should be 90% i guess it will never be done we will near never see just one or two PRs on such somewhat complex languages)

I did the same inflections (a bit more) some years ago fot CakePHP and i did read remarks commercial company
we are inspired by that cake work (them copy pasted in full) so there the least is a commercial web build company that is (somewhat) happy w/ it.

Now if we have a uni level linguistic organization around that is well known to Dutch it would not be a problem.

i did read somewhere someone in the known to doctrine gave up on German his own language

Can you find this again? I think it wouldn't make sense to accept a PR on Dutch if German was rejected in a similar case, would it?

It was not rejected, Did not come so far the person coding gave up.
i think this is what i did read (mind German is even worse then Dutch)
#99
"dereuromark commented on Sep 28, 2018": "I once tried as well, and after 500 lines of exceptions and still no where close to having a reliable package " (my idea is Dutch is a bit simpler)

O i welcome this Timo, at first i did think yeah you give tests but do not think rules but you do well seem to have the interest, good and nice. So yes help and working together for sure appreciated and accepted. Furthermore i noticed your name might tell about you having a dutch connection like me as well? (mind it is spare and free time work for me)

We have to find and understand the linguistic rules. Maybe see what linguistic organizations are able to help us, think organizations that do dutch text to speech, it is a bit in there lane of work.Some years ago Symfony had a web inflector, see where that thing went, use it as low level step-in for non coding people, maybe also have some web interface to the rule sets and exceptions, so non coding people can have give there input as well. (just a few thoughts)

Hello @noud,

apologies if me removing myself from the reviewer list caused confusion. I don't have anything to contribute to the review: the technical side is very well covered by @greg0ire and @SenseException, and without any basic knowledge in the Dutch language I am more than unqualified to review language changes.

That said, I welcome the effort you and @TimoBakx are making to add support for Dutch language inflection. I had previously looked at adding support for German, but quickly gave up as many inflections depend on context which this library does not provide. Your plan to take word lists, throw them at the inflector and work to raise the score seems like a sensible approach. When it comes to context sensitive inflections, it may be worth exploring other avenues of solving this.

To bring an example that previously caused breakage, take the word "weather": there are two pluralisations for this word, "weather" and "weathers", and the appropriate one depends on the context. For example, it's correct to say "we're going out in all kinds of weather" (with "weather" being plural here), but also "we've encountered many different types of weathers on our trip". It's impossible for this library to know the context, so instead of thinking how this library can guess this context we should rather allow the user to specify context and add custom inflection rules for their own contexts. So please, don't try to solve every possible use-case, especially the ones this library currently doesn't support. Instead, aim for providing a good baseline and rely on users to deal with strange edge cases themselves.
