npub1l3gpk6vrudg8r67swqlex5alv9ch59s4lw46kk6hekuxe2n3aczsyqvu48 (npub1l3g…vu48) To oversimplify, they take a giant corpus of English text, scan through it to find common sequences of _characters_ (e.g. "i" is often followed by "z"), and known sequences ("iz" is often followed by "ize"); the result is a function that, given "funize", will see the sequence "fun" and the sequence "ize".

Which... makes me retract what I said about high school understanding of English. Do they even know what word roots are??
