R: nsyllable methods for tokens

nsyllable.tokens {quanteda.textstats} | R Documentation

## nsyllable methods for tokens

### Description

Extends `nsyllable()` methods for tokens objects.

### Usage

    ## S3 method for class 'tokens'
    nsyllable(
      x,
      syllable_dictionary = nsyllable::data_syllables_en,
      use.names = FALSE
    )

### Arguments

`x` | character vector whose syllables will be counted. This will count all syllables in a character vector without regard to separating tokens, so it is recommended that x be individual terms.
`syllable_dictionary` | optional named integer vector of syllable counts where the names are lower case tokens. This can be used to override the language setting, when set to `NULL` (the default). If a syllable dictionary is supplied, this will override the `language` argument.
`use.names` | logical; if `TRUE`, assign the tokens as the names of the syllable count vector

### Examples

[Package quanteda.textstats version 0.94.1 Index]
