A simpler mechanism is mapping all +characters to another character, mapping similar sounding characters to the +same character. At the same time this does case folding. You can not have +SAL items at the same time. + +There are two items required: one to speficy the characters that are mapped +and one that specifies the characters they are mapped to. They must have +exactly the same number of characters.

Another +method is to leave out all vowels. Some characters that sound nearly the same +and are often mixed up, such as 'm' and 'n', are mapped to the same character. +Don't do this too much, all words will start looking alike. + +Characters that do not appear in SOFOFROM will be left out, except that all +white space is replaced by one space. Sequences of the same character in +SOFOFROM are replaced by one. + +You can use the |soundfold()| function to try out the results.
