yiddish
A Python library for processing Yiddish text
Isaac L. Bleaman (bleaman@berkeley.edu) and contributors (see commit history)
What is this for?
This library includes functions to carry out common tasks when dealing with Yiddish text. For example, you might wish to replace precombined Unicode characters (such as אַ, U+FB2E) with their decomposed versions (אַ, which is U+05D0 followed by U+05B7). Or you might wish to transliterate YIVO Yiddish text
(איבער to iber) or render it in the orthography used more commonly in the
Hasidic community (שנײיִק to שנייאיג).
See the source file, yiddish.py, for the full list of supported functions.
How to install
pip install yiddish

Example
import yiddish
output = ''
string = 'אונדזער גאַנצע משפּחה װױנט אין די פֿאַראײניקטע שטאַטן.'
output += yiddish.replace_with_precombined(string) + '\n'
output += yiddish.respell_loshn_koydesh(string) + '\n'
output += yiddish.strip_diacritics(string) + '\n'
output += yiddish.transliterate(string) + '\n'
output += yiddish.transliterate(string, loshn_koydesh=True) + '\n'
output += yiddish.hasidify(string)
output += '\n\n'
string_two = 'shloymele hot khasene gehat mit rokhls tokhter leye.'
output += yiddish.detransliterate(string_two) + '\n'
output += yiddish.detransliterate(string_two, loshn_koydesh=True)
print(output)
Output:
אונדזער גאַנצע משפּחה װױנט אין די פֿאַראײניקטע שטאַטן.
אונדזער גאַנצע מישפּאָכע װױנט אין די פֿאַראײניקטע שטאַטן.
