It takes a name in nominative case and returns the vocative form in lowercase Unicode. The library includes automatic gender detection based on Czech name frequency statistics and can distinguish between given names and surnames, which affects inflection rules for female names.\n\nThe package is designed specifically for Czech and relies on linguistic rules and statistical data for Czech names. It provides a simple API with optional parameters to override automatic gender and name-type detection when needed. The maintainer notes that the function may not work correctly for names of foreign origin.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building a Czech-language application that needs correct name vocatives and can tolerate an abandoned package. The library is stable, has no known vulnerabilities, and low install friction. However, be aware that it receives no maintenance and was last tested on Python versions up to 3.8; use it only if Czech name handling is core to your application and you are comfortable maintaining a fork if needed."},"id":"vokativ","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/vokativ","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/vokativ.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/vokativ/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2020-03-31","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"vokativ","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Declension of Czech names into vocative case."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":135925,"position":11414,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.2.1"}
