Changelog

Changed installed dataset inventory and validation ordering to be deterministic across source and capability variants

Fixed human dataset management output to distinguish Wiktionary source variants and removed duplicate dataset versions

Documented dataset identity, advanced CLI controls, pronunciation filtering, locale semantics, and environment variables

Improved regression coverage for source selection, dataset output, CLI help, aliases, ordering, and language defaults

Added coexisting native and English dataset source variants with CLI/API selection

Added full locale tags, Portuguese regional profiles, broader language coverage, and IPA filtering

Added Greek, Indonesian, Kurdish, Malay, Polish, and Turkish base-language support

Documented project status badges for package metadata and quality visibility

Added Japanese, Korean, Russian, Thai, Vietnamese, and Chinese language support

Added a lazy bulk iterator for deterministic pronunciation exports from dictionary artifacts

Improved focused pronunciation output with canonical IPA brackets and case-variant grouping

Added locale-aware pronunciation preference with neutral fallback when no locale match exists

Added static catalog support for selecting and downloading compatible dataset artifacts

Added grouped pronunciation lookup with locale, region, and part-of-speech filtering

Added cached catalog discovery and dataset update commands for compatible releases

Added support for language-qualified dataset releases and language-aware artifact validation

Added deterministic sense identities, source provenance, and sense lookup by ID

Added entry-level dictionary relations with incoming relation lookup

Added a search-free dictionary artifact profile and immutable schema 10 finalization checks

BREAKING: Changed schema 10 into an exact artifact boundary with side-by-side schema families and full managed-variant rebuilds

Added explicit headword relations for redirects, alternative spellings, and form-of entries

Added the managed dictionary dataset variant for full dictionary inspection without indexed search

Added schema-8 fuzzy suggestions, headword pattern matching, and indexed dictionary definition search

Added deterministic normalized lexical prefix completion through Lexicon.complete() and the complete CLI command

Added automatic color styling for interactive human dictionary output with explicit opt-out controls

Added deterministic local lexical prefix completion through Lexicon.complete() and lexhint complete

Changed WordEvidence to expose lexical case attestation and uppercase-only evidence

Fixed semantic context anchoring so character-span numeric and symbolic targets do not consume adjacent cues

Added GitHub release dataset discovery and installation for versioned Lexhint SQLite artifacts

Added schema-aware dataset variants and regional locale preferences for dictionary lookup and rendering

Added CLI commands for lookup, segmentation, context evidence, artifact builds, dictionary inspection, and status

Added streamed Wiktextract and Kaikki dictionary builds that produce self-describing SQLite artifacts

Added stable semantic-domain evidence that explains context cues while excluding the target span

Added a local read-only Lexicon for dictionary-derived membership and compact identifier segmentation

Added zero runtime dependencies and support for Python 3.10 through 3.14

Changed FrequencyWords integration to optional counts and ranks that enrich dictionary-derived lexemes with provenance

Changed rich dictionary entries to preserve senses, forms, pronunciations, examples, relations, and etymology

Removed standalone word-list vendoring in favor of dictionary-derived lexical membership

Removed lazy runtime dictionary fetching and per-word artifact population

Documented the local SQLite artifact architecture and Sphinx documentation setup

Improved CI and publication checks for tests, static analysis, documentation, distributions, and wheel smoke tests
