From 7ffa4c90f9aff79da61d3d7e7887f7fd312414e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Admin Date: Sun, 12 Apr 2026 08:59:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Lower word-split threshold from 7 to 4 chars Short merged words like "anew" (a new), "Imadea" (I made a), "makeadecision" (make a decision) were missed because the split threshold was too high. Now processes tokens >= 4 chars. English single-letter words (a, I) are already handled by the DP algorithm which allows them as valid split points.
