Module Contents
===============

The ``phonetics`` module defines the following function:

``phonetics``. **soundex**\(*source* [, *size=4*])
  Use the soundex algorithm to create the phonetic key of the **source** string.

``phonetics``. **nysiis**\(*source*)
  Use the New York State Identification and Intelligence System to create the phonetic key of the **source** string.

``phonetics``. **metaphone**\(*source*)
 |  Use the metaphone algorithm to create the phonetic key of the **source** string.
 |  Based on `Lawrence Philips' Metaphone Algorithm <http://aspell.net/metaphone/>`__.

``phonetics``. **dmetaphone**\(*source*)
 |  Use the double methaphone algorithm to create the phonetic key of the **source** string.
 |  Based on `Lawrence Philips' Metaphone Algorithm <http://aspell.net/metaphone/>`__.
