NAME
Lingua::PT::Hyphenate - Separates Portuguese words in syllables
SYNOPSIS
use Lingua::PT::Hyphenate;
@syllables = hyphenate("teste") # @syllables now hold ('tes', 'te')
DESCRIPTION
Separates Portuguese words into syllables.
The module currently works based on known syllables. There are two main disadvantages to this:
1 -> If a syllable for your word isn't contemplated, there's some chance you won't get the result you want.
2 -> Special cases have to be contemplated with the current algorithm.
I will have to do something about this in a near future.
