Geþeode

Geþeode /jeˈθeoː.de/ is an Old English word meaning "language"

Geþeode is a library that provides tools for building fictional languages, written in Rust

The library provides :

• A universal representation for phonological strings
• A way to apply phonological changes to words

Building

cargo build

See also

See here for many examples of phonological rules.

The book Principles of Generative Phonology: An Introduction is a huge help for the linguistic theory I use to build the library.

Use

Due to a re-write under way, the CLI is unusable now.

Run a set of phonological rules on a set of words :

cargo run surface -b examples/romanization.txt -r examples/rules.txt -i examples/input.txt
