About
whatlanguage is a Ruby library designed for efficient text language detection. It leverages bloom filters to achieve high speed and memory efficiency, making it suitable for processing larger text blocks like blog posts or comments. The library supports a wide array of languages including Dutch, English, Farsi, French, German, Italian, Pinyin, Swedish, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Finnish, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, and Spanish. While effective for longer texts, it is noted to perform poorly on very short or Twitter-esque content. The project, initially built in 2007, has received minor updates to ensure compatibility with modern Ruby implementations, though the core algorithms remain largely unchanged.
