May 16, 2016 at 22:16 comment added pat Why remove diacritics? If the goal is to distinguish languages that don’t have diacritics, then why not use languages that don’t have diacritics?

Feb 5, 2016 at 11:57 comment added randomra @squeamishossifrage Thanks for the catch. Updated the English lists. (There were ~60 uppercase words and 2 non-words.)
Feb 4, 2016 at 22:38 comment added r3mainer The lists only contain words with lowercase letters ... That's not entirely true. The all_languages file includes dozens of capitalized words (Mr, Gutenberg, etc.) and the non-words "" (empty string) and "]]|-". I assume it's OK to lowercase the former and delete the latter?
Feb 4, 2016 at 19:49 comment added randomra @Eumel The first couple English words might be present somewhere in the other lists as there might be English phrases in the texts of languages which were used to generate the word lists. Your can categorize an input into only one language. (Whihch means as mentioned in the question that "your code can't always guess the expected output correctly".)

Feb 4, 2016 at 18:43 comment added Eumel are you sure the lists are correct? Im pretty sure i never heard the in german. Does outputting an array with all possible languages count? e.g. the apparently is in all languages so it woul put {1,2,3,4}
