jp-verb-conjugator
This module deconjugates conjugated Japanese verbs using a set of hundreds of rules.
Examples
const Conjugator = require('jp-verbs');
let result = Conjugator.unconjugate('言われてみれば');
console.log(JSON.stringify(result, null, 2));
Results in the following:
[
{
"base": "言う",
"derivationPath": [
"Passive Form",
"て・で Form",
"みる To Try To Do",
"ば Conditional Form"
],
"currentDerivationSequence": [
"言う",
"言われる",
"言われて",
"言われてみる",
"言われてみれば"
]
}
]
Grammar links (mostly from Tae Kim) are also included for almost all of the word types:
const Conjugator = require('jp-verbs');
const grammarLinks = Conjugator.GrammarLinkForWordType;
const wordType = Conjugator.WordType;
console.log(wordType.TE_FORM);
console.log(grammarLinks[wordType.TE_FORM]);
Results in the following:
て・で Form
