A PHP Library / Class to Count Words in Various Languages?
- by Michael Robinson
Some time in the near future I will need to implement a cross-language word count, or if that is not possible, a cross-language character count.
I'd love it if I just had to look at English, but I need to consider every language here, Chinese, Korean, English, Arabic, Hindi, and so on.
I would like to know if Stack Overflow has any leads on where to start looking for an existing product / method to do this in PHP, as I am a good lazy programmer*
