## Usage
### Converter
`Converter` class transliterates the Chinese characters to the chosen transliteration system with parameters specified by the developer. Works for both Traditional and Simplified characters.
```python
# Constructor
c = Converter(system, dialect, format, delimiter, sandhi, punctuation, convert_non_cjk)
# Transliterate Chinese characters
c.get(input)
```
#### System
`system` String - system of transliteration.
* `Tailo` (default) - [Tâi-uân Lô-má-jī Phing-im Hong-àn][tailo-wiki]
* `POJ` - [Pe̍h-ōe-jī][poj-wiki]
* `Zhuyin` - [Taiwanese Phonetic Symbols][zhuyin-wiki]
* `TLPA` - [Taiwanese Language Phonetic Alphabet][tlpa-wiki]
* `Pingyim` - [Bbánlám Uē Pìngyīm Hōng'àn][pingyim-wiki]
* `Tongiong` - [Daī-ghî Tōng-iōng Pīng-im][tongiong-wiki]
* `IPA` - [International Phonetic Alphabet][ipa-wiki]
| text | Tailo | POJ | Zhuyin | TLPA | Pingyim | Tongiong | IPA |
| ---- | ------- | ------- | ----------- | --------- | ------- | -------- | ----------- |
| 台灣 | Tâi-uân | Tâi-oân | ㄉㄞˊ ㄨㄢˊ | Tai5 uan5 | Dáiwán | Tāi-uǎn | Tai²⁵ uan²⁵ |
#### Dialect
`dialect` String - preferred pronunciation.
* `south` (default) - [Zhangzhou][zhangzhou-wiki]-leaning pronunciation
* `north` - [Quanzhou][quanzhou-wiki]-leaning pronunciation
| text | south | north |
| ------ | ------------- | ------------- |
| 五月節 | Gōo-gue̍h-tseh | Gōo-ge̍h-tsueh |
#### Format
`format` String - format in which tones will be represented in the converted sentence.
* `mark` (default) - uses diacritics for each syllable. Not available for TLPA.
* `number` - add a number which represents the tone at the end of the syllable
* `strip` - removes any tone marking
| text | mark | number | strip |
| ---- | ------- | --------- | ------- |
| 台灣 | Tâi-uân | Tai5-uan5 | Tai-uan |
#### Delimiter
`delimiter` String - sets the delimiter character that will be placed in between syllables of a word.
Default value depends on the chosen `system`:
* `'-'` - for `Tailo`, `POJ`, `Tongiong`
* `''` - for `Pingyim`
* `' '` - for `Zhuyin`, `TLPA`, `IPA`
| text | '-' | '' | ' ' |
| ---- | ------- | ------ | ------- |
| 台灣 | Tâi-uân | Tâiuân | Tâi uân |
#### Sandhi
`sandhi` String - applies the [sandhi rules of Taiwanese Hokkien][sandhi-wiki].
Since it's difficult to encode all sandhi rules, Taibun provides multiple modes for sandhi conversion to allow for customised sandhi handling.
* `none` - doesn't perform any tone sandhi
* `auto` - closest approximation to full correct tone sandhi of Taiwanese, with proper sandhi of pronouns, suffixes, and words with 仔
* `exc_last` - changes tone for every syllable except for the last one
* `incl_last` - changes tone for every syllable including the last one
Default value depends on the chosen `system`:
* `auto` - for `Tongiong`
* `none` - for `Tailo`, `POJ`, `Zhuyin`, `TLPA`, `Pingyim`, `IPA`
| text | none | auto | exc_last | incl_last |
| ---------------- | ------------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------- | ------------------------- |
| 這是你的手機仔無 | Tse sī lí ê tshiú-ki-á bô | Tse sì li ē tshiu-kī-á bô? | Tsē sì li ē tshiu-kī-a bô | Tsē sì li ē tshiu-kī-a bō |
Sandhi rules also change depending on the dialect chosen.
| text | no sandhi | south | north |
| ---- | --------- | ------- | ------- |
| 台灣 | Tâi-uân | Tāi-uân | Tài-uân |
#### Punctuation
`punctuation` String
* `format` (default) - converts Chinese-style punctuation to Latin-style punctuation and capitalises words at the beginning of each sentence.
* `none` - preserves Chinese-style punctuation and doesn't capitalise words at the beginning of new sentences.
| text | format | none |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 這是臺南，簡稱「南」（白話字：Tâi-lâm；注音符號：ㄊㄞˊ ㄋㄢˊ，國語：Táinán）。 | Tse sī Tâi-lâm, kán-tshing "lâm" (Pe̍h-uē-jī: Tâi-lâm; tsù-im hû-hō: ㄊㄞˊ ㄋㄢˊ, kok-gí: Táinán). | tse sī Tâi-lâm，kán-tshing「lâm」（Pe̍h-uē-jī：Tâi-lâm；tsù-im hû-hō：ㄊㄞˊ ㄋㄢˊ，kok-gí：Táinán）。 |
#### Convert non-CJK
`convert_non_cjk` Boolean - defines whether or not to convert non-Chinese words. Can be used to convert Tailo to another romanisation system.
* `True` - convert non-Chinese character words
* `False` (default) - convert only Chinese character words
| text | False | True |
| --------- | ----------------------- | ----------------------- |
| 我食pháng | ㆣㄨㄚˋ ㄐㄧㄚㆷ˙ pháng | ㆣㄨㄚˋ ㄐㄧㄚㆷ˙ ㄆㄤˋ |
### Tokeniser
`Tokeniser` class performs [NLTK wordpunct_tokenize][nltk-tokenize]-like tokenisation of a Taiwanese Hokkien sentence.
```python
# Constructor
t = Tokeniser()
# Tokenise Taiwanese Hokkien sentence
t.tokenise(input)
```
### Other Functions
Handy functions for NLP tasks in Taiwanese Hokkien.
```python
# Convert to Traditional
to_traditional(input)
# Convert to Simplified
to_simplified(input)
# Check if the string is fully composed of Chinese characters
is_cjk(input)
```
