Tamil: `apertium-tam`
===============================================================================

This is an Apertium monolingual language package for Tamil. What
you can use this language package for:

* Morphological analysis of Tamil
* Morphological generation of Tamil
* Part-of-speech tagging of Tamil

Requirements
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You will need the following software installed:

* lttoolbox (>= 3.3.0)
* apertium (>= 3.3.0)
* vislcg3 (>= 0.9.9.10297)
* hfst (>= 3.8.2)

If this does not make any sense, we recommend you look at: apertium.org.

Compiling
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given the requirements being installed, you should be able to just run:

```bash
$ ./configure
$ make
```

You can use `./autogen.sh` instead of `./configure` if you're compiling
from source.

If you're doing development, you don't have to install the data, you
can use it directly from this directory.

If you are installing this language package as a prerequisite for an
Apertium translation pair, then do (typically as root / with sudo):

```bash
$ make install
```

You can use a `--prefix` with `./configure` to install as a non-root user,
but make sure to use the same prefix when installing the translation
pair and any other language packages.

Testing
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are in the source directory after running make, the following
commands should work:

```console
$ echo "TODO: சோதனை வசனம்" | apertium -d . tam-morph
^TODO/*TODO$: ^சோதனை/சோதனை$ ^வசனம்/வசனம்$

$ echo "TODO: சோதனை வசனம்" | apertium -d . tam-tagger
^TODO/*TODO$: ^சோதனை/சோதனை$ ^வசனம்/வசனம்$
```
