Text::Phonetic::Phonem - Phonem algorithm

The PHONEM algorithm is a simple substitution algorithm that was originally implemented in dBase.

Implementation of the PHONEM substitutions, as described in Georg Wilde and Carsten Meyer, "Doppelgaenger gesucht - Ein Programm fuer kontextsensitive phonetische Textumwandlung" from ct Magazin fuer Computer & Technik 25/1999.

The original variant was implemented as X86-Assembler-Funktion. This implementation does not try to mimic the original code, though it should achieve equal results. As the original software used for building the original implementation was not available, there was no testing for correctness, other than the examples given in the article.

The Perl implementation was written by Martin Wilz (http://wilz.de/view/Themen/MagisterArbeit)
