This is the README for Lingua::JA::Gairaigo::Fuzzy version 0.08.

Lingua::JA::Gairaigo::Fuzzy is a "module" for the Perl computer programming
language, a library of computer code to install on a computer.  This
document contains four sections:

1. About - what the module does

2. Documentation - how to learn more about the module

3. Installation - how to install this module on a computer

4. Help - what to do if you get stuck

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. ABOUT

Lingua::JA::Gairaigo::Fuzzy - variant spellings of foreign words in
Japanese

Given two Japanese gairaigo words (katakana words), guess whether they
are the same word. Japanese language is somewhat inconsistent in how
it writes foreign loan words. For example "motor" can be モーター or
モータ from the English "motor", or モートル from Dutch "motor".
This
module attempts to guess whether two loanwords refer to the same
thing.
