List of existing Normation classes
Normation classes are implemented for the following languages:
|
Name of Normation class |
Supported Language(s) |
Description |
|
NormationLat |
Latin-based languages |
This class provides a first level of normation for Latin-based languages, i.e. many European languages. NormationLat 'removes extra punctuation' from characters, so that for example "señora" is also found when searching for "senora". |
|
NormationBul |
Bulgarian |
Allows you to search words both in Cyrillic and Latin transcription. The transliteration is based on the official Bulgarian transliteration system (2006). |
|
NormationCyr1 |
Russian, Ukrainian, Macedonian |
Allows you to search words both in Cyrillic and Latin transcription. The Russian and Ukrainian transliteration is based on GOST 16876 (1971). The Macedonian transliteration is based on the system used in passports of the Republic of Macedonia since 2008. |
|
NormationCyr2 |
Russian, Ukrainian, Macedonian |
Allows you to search words both in Cyrillic and Latin transcription. The Russian and Ukrainian transliteration is based on GOST 7.79 System B (2002). The Macedonian transliteration is based on the system used in passports of the Republic of Macedonia since 2008. |

Currently NormationEng only provides basic general Normation such as ignoring upper and lower case and ignoring punctuation characters. A real good Normation class for English still needs to be implemented. |
|
