Go (golang) package for Japanese grammar

Japanese

A Go (golang) package for generating the different possible word forms and conjugations in Japanese.

This is still under heavy development. It's basically only an experiment at this stage. However, later extensions might also include basic grammar parsing, analysis and translation.

Examples

For the most comprehensive examples, see the words_test.go file. For the impatient, here's an example of usage right now; it's bound to change in the (very near) future:

func main() {
    ruverb := RuVerb{Verb{Word{"食べる", "たべる", "eat"}}}
    uverb := UVerb{Verb{Word{"買う", "かう", "buy"}}}
    uverb2 := UVerb{Verb{Word{"待つ", "まつ", "wait"}}}

    fmt.Println(ruverb.Negative()) // prints 食べない
    fmt.Println(uverb.Negative()) // prints 買わない
    fmt.Println(uverb2.Negative()) // prints 待たない
}
