ckb-textify 3.0.1

A comprehensive Text Normalization library for Central Kurdish (Sorani).

ckb-textify

ckb-textify is an industrial-strength Text Normalization and Transliteration library designed specifically for Central Kurdish (Sorani).

It transforms "messy" real-world text (mixed languages, symbols, math, codes) into clean, spoken Kurdish text, making it the perfect pre-processor for Text-to-Speech (TTS) and NLP models.

🌟 Features (v3.0.0)

1. 🌍 Universal Script Support

Transliterates almost any language into Sorani script using a "Latin Bridge" technique.

• Chinese: 你好 → نی هاو
• Russian: Путин → پوتین
• Greek: Χαίρετε → چایرێت
• German/French: Handles accents (Straẞe → ستراسسە, République → ڕیپەبلیک).

2. ➗ Advanced Math & Science

• Scientific Notation: 5e-23 → پێنج جارانی دە توانی سالب بیست و سێ
• Functions: ln 4 → لۆگاریتمی سروشتی چوار
• Context-Aware: Distinguishes Division (7/6) from Rates (km/h).

3. 📞 Smart Phone Numbers

Handles Iraqi/Kurdish formats with intelligent grouping (4-3-2-2).

• 07501234567 → سفر حەوت سەد و پەنجا...
• +964... → کۆ نۆ سەد و شەست و چوار...

4. 🔡 English Transliteration (IPA)

Uses the International Phonetic Alphabet to pronounce English words correctly.

• Phone → فۆن (Not "پھۆنە")
• Google → گووگڵ
• Acronyms: GPT → جی پی تی

Reads technical strings character-by-character.

• Emails: [e-mail] → ئای ئێن ئێف ئۆ ئەت جیمەیڵ دۆت کۆم

• Codes: A1-B2 → ئەی یەک داش بی دوو

6. 📏 Units & Measurements

Solves ambiguity between units and nouns.

• 10m → دە مەتر (Unit) vs m → m (Noun/Letter)
• 120km/h → سەد و بیست کیلۆمەتر بۆ هەر کاتژمێرێک

🎛️ Configuration
