Goal

A Bangla spellchecker with a web interface. The spellchecker will suggest corrections according to some (yet-to-decide) standard, such as Bangla Academy.

Current limitations

  • No way to detect inflections. inflected words are flagged even when correct (e.g. দেশে).
  • Fails to flag misspelt compound words (e.g. তেলেবাগুনে)
  • Flags many proper nouns (e.g. সত্যজিত)
  • Flags some words that are actually correct according to modern (reformed) spelling standards (e.g. বাঙালি)
  • For some commonly misspelt words, the suggestions are not always as expected (e.g. আকাংখা -> আকাঙ্ক্ষা, but it suggests only আকাটা instead)
  • No transliteration support.

Plans

Data

The data comes from http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/dictionaries/tree/

Technologies

Node package to use: https://github.com/Wulf/nodehun

Also, looks useful: https://github.com/rexxars/nodehun-sentences. It's not working currently with Bangla text.
