Hi!
First of all, thank you for your great library! In general everything works really well.
But here is a case where written numbers are not converted properly in German, especially numbers indicating a "one". Here are some examples:
What works is alpha2digit("eins Getränk", "de") - > "1 Getränk" but that's the only case.
I know German (grammatical) cases are somewhat nasty. In English just say "one drink" in every (grammatical) case. But this is something which would be really awesome if your library could handle them. Or am I missing something?
Anyway, thank you for any tips!
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
In all the languages we support, the indefinite article is not considered a ordinal by alpha2digit.
alpha2digit("un chien", "fr")
"un chien"
alpha2digit("a dog", "en")
"a dog"
# and even
alpha2digit("one dog", "en")
"one dog"
# but
alpha2digit("one two three", "en")
"1 2 3"
The purpose of the provided alpha2digit function is to make text easier to read for humans.
Follow #42 for a feature extension to "force" conversion of articles.
