DAVAR

[pc2]

shalom haverim,

we are from Brazil. we like DAVAR very much.
there is just one doubt that bothers us a little.
this is in the Modern Hebrew.
in the dictionary, he has verbs, of course.
for an instance, let's take the verb "to want".
he gives the following:
"(to) want" -> "ratzah".
"(one) wants" -> "rotzeh".
OK... we got this result. we liked it very much, he shows the present (participle) form. but there are some verbs of which he doesn't show the form. and there are also, verbs which he shows without showing the vowels (diacritic marks). why is that?
and other thing: is there any way he can show the gender and the plural forms of the words? or the infinitive of verbs? or even maybe the 3rd person singular past form?

salutations,

Shalom to Brazil!

I am not sute, about which FILE you are speaking. Will be good to specify. But generally, it is not problem of Davar itself - rather the words, included into DIC file.
Personally - I did only program, but no modules. We tried to collect all available (and free of copyright!) wordlists from internet and fit it to Davar. With one exception - Jiri Vytlacil created czech-hebrew dictionary, ~ 27.000 words from zero.
So, folks - rest is upon users now
Anyone can submit words into dic file, D2.4 have possibility to edit wordlist.
I about 1.5 years hardly work on Davar3, which will be soon available for testers - and have no time to EDIT hebrew modules.

What about to try that and help other .... ?


Sincerely,

Josef
