13 * English nouns are capitalised, this needs to be fixed.
14 * Tagger needs to be properly generated, currently there is
16 * Punctuation needs to be modified to suit the German language.
17 Examples of changes to be made (if not done already) are
19 - Decimal places are shown by a comma (1.0 == 1,0)
20 - Large numbers are separated by spaces or a period
21 (20,000 == 20.000 OR 20 000)
22 - Subordinate clauses are marked off from the rest of
23 the sentence by the use of a comma (Als er nach
24 Hause kam, war sie schon weg.)
25 - German has a different quote system than English
26 * Numbers -- German numbers are joined, will need to use <j/>
27 unlike English with '-'.
28 * Is 'mit' a preposition or an adverb. At the moment it is
29 categorised (as in English) -- as a preposition. This
30 should be investigated -- perhaps we should have two entries?
31 * Include support for verbs with separable prefixes:
32 - anhaben -> to have on/to be wearing
33 * Ich habe ... an. -> I have ... on.
34 - anfangen -> to start/to begin
35 * Es faengt um drei Uhr an. -> It begins at three o'clock.
39 Feel free to add test sentences. They can be tested with 'make test'.
43 We should be able to translate these perfectly.
46 #* Ich hatte ein Bier.
47 #* Ich habe die Hunde.
48 #* Ich hatte vier Kinder.
49 #* Du hattest vier Biere, und zwei Kinder.
50 #* Ich sah sie im Herbst.
52 #* Ich bin ausgezeichnet.
54 #* Ich hatte einen guten Schiss
57 ===Intermediate Complex===
58 Der Hund ist heute nicht hier, sondern morgen auch nicht.
62 These sentences are more complex, if we can translate them and get anything like the meaning, we're doing
65 #* UN-Mission nach Darfur 3000 Blauhelme und Kampfhubschrauber sollen in der Krisenregion stationiert werden.
66 #* Brennpunkt in Europa das Kosovo kommt nicht zur Ruhe. Albaner und Serben stehen sich feindselig gegenüber.
