phonicsFR : Phonics Algorithms In French

This package provides algorithms to phonetically transform text. These algorithms are adapted to work on french texts.

Currently two algorithms are implemented:

• phonex
• soundex2

The current implementation borrows a lot from the work of Florent Carlier (http://info.univ-lemans.fr/~carlier/recherche/soundex.html)

Installation

install.packages('devtools')
devtools::install.github('equipe22/phonicsFR')

Usage

txt = 'example'
phonex(txt)
soundex2(txt)
