Typo Prevention



Jim B

I just want to elaborate two disjoined thoughts I wrote about before that speak directly to the project:

1) Storing readings and yomigana really is redundant. If you have yomigana, no matter the parsing quality, the reading is implied.

2) It would be a nice feature such that when you went to save a new entry into EDICT that a yomigana parser verified that it could parse your entry. That would be a simple way to catch many typos. Unless say you already checked off "irregular", if it couldn't parse it might ask you "are you sure there are no typos because the reading seems irregular"... And then maybe you catch something before it gets into the system.
