Thank you, I believe it may be useful. :)

The «ъ», «ы» and «ь» missing is perfectly OK: they aren’t allowed in the beginning of the word by Russian phonology.[1]
The «э» missing isn't a big deal since it's a rather rare letter.


But I’d like to warn against using the Russian wordlist. It is simply too big!

It contains, in particular:
· old-fashioned spellings (азбест/azbest instead of асбест/asbest ‘asbestos’)
· old-fashioned words (алкалический/alkalicheskij ‘alkaline (adj.)’ instead of щелочной/shhelochnoj)
· some names that have been obsolete for centuries like Агриппина/Agrippina or Андроник/Andronik
· two forms of patronymics for each male name: Андроникович/Andronikovich ‘son of Andronik’, Андрониковна/Andronikovna ‘daughter of Andronik’
· some words that can be used only in poetic speech, and sound very strange elsewhere (e.g. аметистово/ametistovo ‘amethystively, in an amethyst way’[2])

I doubt all Russian contributors will be able to cover this vocabulary in any reasonable period of time. I think we need something more concise.


[1] Ы/y` might occur at the beginning of some Turkish, Eskimo etc. placenames, but even there it is usually supstituted by И.
[2] Yes, it is very weird. Although it can be used as a part of compound words, e.g. аметистово-фиолетовый/ametistovo-fioletovy`j ‘purple like an amethyst, amethyst-purple’, but in such a case it’s not a word on its own.

Though you can, of course, search for exact phrases with quotes (e.g. "そんなことないよ").

I tried frequency list. Not only in Italian. But I like more concise pocket dictionaries. The list of 50000 words not yet in Tatoeba (Italian only):

An Italian speaker can decide what are useful ones.
(I posted the German to Hungarian sentence links a week ago, what contains untranslated sentences/words, but I did not get any reply :P) Maybe this one will be more "useful".

Opinions please. >:D (I made a verb conjugator only for filter words, bah).

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/W...requency_lists
there you can found some frequency list for a bunch of languages.

http://corpus.leeds.ac.uk/list.html

In addition to sysko's link, this page has some much larger frequency lists for a few languages that might be easier to programmatically extract.

Yes, it looks like the relevant setting (on the server side) is handled here as I've pasted here (from that link). But it's not a change I can make. That's why I decided to ask you guys to add it.

11.2.19. enable_star

Enables star-syntax (or wildcard syntax) when searching through prefix/infix indexes. Optional, default is is 0 (do not use wildcard syntax), for compatibility with 0.9.7. Known values are 0 and 1.

This feature enables "star-syntax", or wildcard syntax, when searching through indexes which were created with prefix or infix indexing enabled. It only affects searching; so it can be changed without reindexing by simply restarting searchd.

The default value is 0, that means to disable star-syntax and treat all keywords as prefixes or infixes respectively, depending on indexing-time min_prefix_len and min_infix_len settings. The value of 1 means that star ('*') can be used at the start and/or the end of the keyword. The star will match zero or more characters.

For example, assume that the index was built with infixes and that enable_star is 1. Searching should work as follows:

"abcdef" query will match only those documents that contain the exact "abcdef" word in them.
"abc*" query will match those documents that contain any words starting with "abc" (including the documents which contain the exact "abc" word only);
"*cde*" query will match those documents that contain any words which have "cde" characters in any part of the word (including the documents which contain the exact "cde" word only).
"*def" query will match those documents that contain any words ending with "def" (including the documents that contain the exact "def" word only).
