Text Language Detect
====================

[](#text-language-detect)

Detects the language of a given piece of text.

The package attempts to detect the language of a sample of text by correlating ranked 3-gram frequencies to a table of 3-gram frequencies of known languages.

It implements a version of a technique originally proposed by Cavnar & Trenkle (1994): "N-Gram-Based Text Categorization".

This is a fork of [Text\_LanguageDetect](http://pear.php.net/package/Text_LanguageDetect) 0.3.0 (alpha).
