This package translates AFINN-165 list of english words to new languages. These lists of words can be used to create multilingual sentiment analysis classifiers.
"AFINN is a list of English words rated for valence with an integer between minus five (negative) and plus five (positive)."

git clone
# download the english AFINN-165 json file
php download.phpphp translate.php [language]
Example:
# Translate AFINN to french
php translate.php frTwo tsv files will be created in the /data/{LANG} directory
- translated.json - list of unique non-english words
- en-untranslated.tsv - list of english words that could not be translated
Build compiles all .tsv files in /data/{LANG} directory into one single file
it will start with
- translated.tsv
and then go through every other .tsv file in that diretory and merge the lists. If a word exists in several files the weight will be overwritten with the weight of the last occurrance of the word.
Example:
# Merge all .tsv files into one
php build.php noThe compiled files can be found in /data/{lang}/build/{lang}.tsv
Running the watcher will recompile the final .tsv file every time one of the files in /data/{LANG} is updated. This is useful is you are curating lists, and using the compiled .tsv in a classifier while testing.
Example:
# Watch for changes in .tsv and recompile
php watch.php no
