A script for counting word families in a text file.

word_family_counter

A Python script for counting word families in a text file using advanced morphological analysis with spaCy.

Features

• Processes text files to count word families
• Uses spaCy for advanced linguistic analysis and lemmatization
• Handles contractions, compound words, and various text preprocessing tasks
• Supports multiple languages (depending on available spaCy models)
• Provides detailed output with word family frequencies

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/BlueBirdBack/word_family_counter.git
   cd word_family_counter
   

2. Create a virtual environment (optional but recommended):

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows, use `venv\Scripts\activate`
   

3. Install the required dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

4. Download the spaCy language model:

   python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm
   

Usage

Run the command with a text file as an argument:

word_family_counter path/to/your/text_file.txt

Optional arguments:

• --verbose: Increase output verbosity for debugging purposes
• --language: Specify the spaCy model to use (default: en_core_web_sm)

Example:

word_family_counter sample.txt --verbose --language en_core_web_md

Note: Ensure that you have installed the required spaCy model before running the command. If you encounter an error about missing models, run the installation command in step 4 again.

Output

The script will display:

1. Total number of words in the text
2. Total number of unique word families
3. A list of word families sorted by frequency (descending) and then alphabetically
