Heyo original PR maker of accents here: I looked over a lot of translations and it looks like you can hit most of these cases with syllable replacements instead. It is a system I implemented into my accents later on but haven't gotten a chance to use them. I made the following PR as a proof of concept for how to use the system so people would have something to reference in the code but it was cringe and denied but it serves as a nice tutorial on how to do it: basically as a example relating to this PR you can replace the following: "\bgeneticists\b": "yeneticists", into a single translation that is: "gen": "yen", This gives you the benefit of now replacing EVERY SINGLE gen word in existence and even when you encounter gen later on in some other word (not the start). Basically the /b is a breakpoint so /b on both sides tell the code "replace it only if it is exactly this." So if for example you are interested in ONLY replacing gen at the start of a word but don't want it to replace it in the middle of the word (If you wanted to replace "Generator with Yenerator but not "Regen" with "Reyen" you'd do: Basically /b can be thought of as like a "wildcard ender" if that makes sense. Accents are applied in order on the list as well so if you replace the "o" with "ø" near the end of the json file I think it would also hit every O as well after the translations take place but I haven't really tested that kind of thing so it would be something to try. Let me know if you have any questions; Thank you! |
