public class Language
extends Object
implements Language

Language class for parsing (natural language) text. This language module employs a primitive approach where individual words are interpreted as token types. Whitespace and special characters are ignored. This approach works, but there are better approaches for text plagiarism out there (based on NLP techniques).
