Do you mean the algorithm for breaking a speech stream into words, or the 
algorithm for telling whether the words are valid? The former is done, except 
for the option that always requires a pause before a cmevla and being tested 
by someone else; but the latter I'm not finished encoding myself.

I am working, when I can find time for it, on the complete brivla validity 
test. I think I got the tosmabru test working right, but it is claiming that 
{lekybumlatu} and {stanybrulspa} are valid. (The former is {le kybu mlatu} 
run together; {brulspa} is the slinku'i of {tebrulspa}, a plant of the mint 
family.)
