Description-en: French dictionary for hunspell (dependency package)
This is a dependency package that installs one (and only one) of the four
available French dictionaries. These dictionaries differ in the way they apply
the spelling reform of 1990:
.
- hunspell-fr-modern: this dictionary is a selection of classic and revised
spellings. It follows the slow evolution of modern spelling. It contains the
less controversial spellings introduced by the 1990 reform.
.
- hunspell-fr-classical: this dictionary is a superset of the "modern"
dictionary, to which it adds alternative spellings (some which are still
widely used, some others which are being phased out).
.
- hunspell-fr-revised: this dictionary includes only the new spelling for the
words that were affected by the 1990 reform.
.
- hunspell-fr-comprehensive: this dictionary includes both the old and the new
spelling for the words that were affected by the 1990 reform.
