2.14.0 — Two fixes to the syllable counter specifically (Syllabes tab / analyseLigne
— a separate engine from the rhyme one, they'd never shared any logic before this):
Fixed: a verse ending on a 3rd-person-plural verb ("...qu'elles pleurent") was counted
one syllable too many. The mute-e detection only recognised a literal final "e" (rose,
chante) — never the "-ent" of "ils/elles pleurent, chantent...", which is the exact same
silent sound, just spelled differently. Classical versification confirms this ending never
counts at the end of a line, same as any other mute e (checked against several current
French versification references while fixing this).
Since "-ent" is genuinely ambiguous from spelling alone (silent 3rd-plural verb ending in pleurent, but a real pronounced [ɑ̃] in nouns/adjectives like récent, argent, moment, président...), the fix now checks the extended phonetic dictionary first when
available — exact, no guessing (a transcription ending in a consonant means the "-ent"
added no sound at all; ending in the nasal vowel means it's genuinely pronounced) — and
falls back to a curated list of ~70 common non-verb exceptions only for words outside the
dictionary, so the fix still helps even without one configured.
