Package: liblingua-en-syllable-perl (0.300-1)

module to estimate syllable count in English words

Lingua::EN::Syllable::syllable() estimates the number of syllables in the English word passed to it.

Note that it isn't entirely accurate... it fails (by one syllable) for about 10-15% of the words. The only way to get a 100% accurate count is to do a dictionary lookup, so this is a small and fast alternative where more-or-less accurate results will suffice, such as estimating the reading level of a document.
