loanpy is a tool for historical linguists. It extracts sound changes and constraints from an etymological dictionary, generates pseudo-roots for L1, pseudo- sound-substitutions for L2, searches for phonetically identical lexemes and ranks those according to semantic similarity.
Installation
$ python -m pip install loanpyGetting started
>>> from loanpy import loanfinder as lfDownload and unpack 3 Gigabytes of pretrained Google-News vectors. Move GoogleNews-vectors-negative300.bin to the folder “data”, the full path to which can be retrieved via:
>>> import os
>>> print(os.path.dirname(lf.__file__)+r"\data")Following code will compare a set of Gothic words (data/dfgot.csv) with Hungarian words (data/zaicz.csv) and evaluate which elements are the most likely candidates for loanwords. The result can be viewed in data/results/matches.csv:
