-The nuspell package
\ No newline at end of file
+Nuspell is a free and open source spell checker library and command-line
+program designed for languages with rich morphology and complex word
+compounding. Nuspell is a pure C++ re-implementation of Hunspell.
+
+Main features of Nuspell spell checker:
+
+  - Full unicode support backed by ICU
+  - Backward compatibility with Hunspell dictionary file format
+  - Twofold affix stripping (for agglutinative languages, like Azeri,
+    Basque, Estonian, Finnish, Hungarian, Turkish, etc.)
+  - Support complex compounds (for example, Hungarian, German and Dutch)
+  - Support language specific features (for example, special casing of
+    Azeri and Turkish dotted i, or German sharp s)
+  - Handle conditional affixes, circumfixes, fogemorphemes, forbidden
+    words, pseudoroots and homonyms.
+  - Free software. Licensed under GNU LGPL v3 or later.
