values.toApproximate

Could you please add .quantify(list) as in Pattern.en. Again a WordNet lookup with .meet(noun1,noun2) as in NodeBox Linguistics.

Two sweet and essential missing NLP pieces. Nice job by the way… graduallly making JS great again! 😃

I’m building a bot that can generate meaningful response (Natural Language Generation). Your method could be an addition, but the previous methods I’ve presented would help in generating natural language from database values (multiple database values to be precise).

I mean generating from a dictionary or key-value object… as well as an item and its amount. I also do love the toApproximate() however is that more descriptive than quantify() ?

thanks, yeah this is a cool idea. What, if you don’t mind, are you using it for?

I would see this feature implemented something like this:

doc=nlp('27 seven thousand rats')
doc.values().toApprox()
doc.out()
// 'several thousand rats'

something like that?
