Well, yes, obviously. My point is that for more than 50% of Afrikaans nouns, we can save a whole lot of typing, and for the rest, we can assume that people who already know enough to put in e or s will also know enough to see when it's wrong.

Ok then, I'll add it in.

Now here's the next step: prediction. When supplied with |e it should be able to shorten doubled vowels, at least. Maybe it should be able to do things like oog--> as well, although that might be more difficult. We could use the same logic to make the inflected forms of adjectives.

Oh, and we forgot to include the subjunctives of wees in the headword line. I suppose we need a table now, since 6 forms is a bit much.

Can you check the IPA at leerarea for me? I think I made a mistake, or at least it doesn't look right.

I'm not really too familiar with Afrikaans pronunciation, sorry.
