Here is the result of using the regular expressions used in my Python module to segment the longest place name in the UK.

Both forward and backward segmentation are used. Background picture from Astronomy Picture of the Day.

Syllable segmentation in Welsh

Building on previous work on syllable segmentation, I have now made an initial version of syllable segmentation in Welsh. This currently is implemented within the syllabenn_ranna_kw module, and there is also a test script regexp_test_cy.py at bitbucket.org/davidtreth/taklow-kernewek.


The output of the test script looks like this:

Each syllable is matched by a regular expression using re.findall().The output of this is a list of tuples, one per syllable. The first four elements of the tuple are used if it is a syllable beginning with a consonant, the next three if it is a syllable beginning with a vowel, and the last three if it is a syllable (either CV or V) using a vowel with an diaresis (looks like a German umlaut), which in Welsh forces it to be a separate syllable rather than part of a dipthong with a following vowel.

This is a method, matching backwards from the end of the word.

The main program splitting text into syllables in text mode syllabenn_ranna_kw.py is now able to process Welsh text (possibly erroneously). I will create a TkInter GUI app for it once I have debugged it a bit more.

Here is Mae Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau treated by the program:

The word "gwrol" is assumed to have gwr as a consonant cluster, and is thus analysed as 1 syllable rather than 2 it has if w is pronounced as a vowel, which I is the correct Welsh pronunciation of this word, according to recordings of the Welsh national anthem.
Also, "pleidiol" is analysed as two syllables, interpreting the second i as a semi-vowel. It should really be 3 syllables, interpreting it as a vowel, i.e. ["pleid", "i", "ol"].

The Welsh syllable segmentation has a set of regular expressions defined for Welsh, and a subclass of the Syllabenn object, however the Ger object only has the special cases (of abnormal stress) defined for Cornish in the file datageryow.py so most abnormally stressed words will not be picked up.

Syllable segmentation now available for Standard Written Form Cornish

I have done some more work on the syllable segmentation module of my taklow-kernewek Python software.

I have added regular expressions to process text in the Standard Written Form of Cornish. These are still under testing and may not correctly process all SWF words.

It looks to me like the SWF specification is not currently available at the Cornish Language Office website, it was accessible via the MAGA website which now redirects to the Cornish Language Office, which doesn't appear to link to the SWF specification PDF.

However it is online here: http://kernowek.net/Specification_Final_Version.pdf and the 2014 revisions are here: https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/media/21486879/swf-review-board-final-report.pdf. The SWF dictionary can be accessed as a PDF (pre-revision spelling) or as a website www.cornishdictionary.org.uk, which will soon be revised by Akademi Kernewek.

Peter Jenkin has recently produced some translations of some Welsh songs into Cornish, in FSS Traditional, which I have used to test my new regular expressions.

As an example, this is the translation of Calon Lân (Colon Lan):

Counting number of syllables per word and in each line. "Tecca" should be spelt "Tecka" I believe which will be recognised as 2 syllables, "Precyous" is 2 syllables in the output reproduced at the end of this post. This screenshot was taken before 'cy' was added as a consonant (used in FSS in place of KK 'sh') in the FSS regular expressions.

Full syllable details. The syllable parts have lengths of either 1 (short) or 2 (long) in FSS rather than 1 (short), 2 (half-long vowel / gemminated consonant), 3 (long vowel) in Kemmyn.

The original text in Welsh is:

Calon lân yn llawn daioni,

Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:

Dim ond calon lân all ganu

Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos.

Nid wy'n gofyn bywyd moethus,
Aur y byd na'i berlau mân:
Gofyn wyf am galon hapus,
Calon onest, calon lân.

Pe dymunwn olud bydol,
Hedyn buan ganddo sydd;
Golud calon lân, rinweddol,
Yn dwyn bythol elw fydd.

Hwyr a bore fy nymuniad 

Gwyd i'r nef ar adain cân
Ar i Dduw, er mwyn fy Ngheidwad,
Roddi i mi galon lân.

with Peter Jenkin's Cornish translation:

Colon lan yw leun a dhadder,
Tecca es lili precyous:
Ny yll saw colon lan cana -
Cana'n jydh ha cana'n nos.
1. Ny wovynnav bewnans pur es,
Owr an bys na'y berlys mann:
Govyn a wrav colon attes,
Colon onest, colon lan.
   
2. Pythow an bys ma, mar mynnen,
Dhe hasen uskis galsa va;
Lanow colon lan yw prest len
A brenvyth prow bynytha.
   
3. Gorthugher, myttin ow mynnas
A neyj war eskelly can -
Troha Duw, a-barth ow Gwithyas,
A ro dhymmo colon lan.

The word "Tecca" should probably be written "Tecka" in SWF/T, where it will have 2 syllables.

The long-form output showing syllable details is shown below. The lengths of vowels are either long (written as 2 units here) or short (1) in the Standard Written Form, rather than long being 3, half-long 2 and short 1 as in Kemmyn.
