Investigate why some variants are not taken into account

See original GitHub issue

Reported by Alex6.

In French, the word encalminés doesn’t return definitions. Using our CLI, we can confirm what is available on the Wiktionary: encalminés has 2 variants (encalminé, and encalminer):

$ python -m wikidict fr --get-word encalminés 
encalminés \ɑ̃.kal.mi.ne\  

[variants] encalminer, encalminé
$ python -m wikidict fr --get-word encalminer
encalminer \ɑ̃.kal.mi.ne\  

De calme, avec le préfixe en-.


  1. Faire cesser, ou cesser, d’avancer, par manque de vent.
  2. (Figuré) Bloquer l’avancement, le progrès.
$ python -m wikidict fr --get-word encalminé 
encalminé \ɑ̃.kal.mi.ne\  

(Siècle à préciser) De calme avec les affixes en- et -iné.


  1. (Marine) Immobilisé, en parlant d’un voilier, par l’absence de vent ou à l’abri dans un havre.
  2. (Figuré) En parlant d'une personne : à l'arrêt, en attente de.
[variants] encalminer

I open the issue for more investigations, for instance I didn’t check Kobo logs yet.

In such a situation, I would have thought both words to be displayed 🤔

My first guess would be that we don’t register encalminés because it’s a plural and we hoped for Kobo to display encalminé automatically.

IIRC, I was only referring to English when I said that.

About frauduleuses, the variant is “frauduleux” already.

Indeed. I don’t know what I did, but it works like a charm.
