Summary
Prevent
removeArabicAffixesfrom corrupting short words such asنور→ورandبنت→نت. Keep the original word when the complete stripped result contains fewer than three Arabic letters, excluding diacritics, tatweel, digits, and other scripts.فلسطين.Scope and limitations
This remains heuristic affix stripping, not morphological analysis. Legitimate two-letter stems remain unchanged (
اليد→اليد), andيحبونremains unchanged. Existing incorrect stripping in longer words is outside this fix.removeArabicAffixesrequires Unicode property escape support; unrelated APIs can still load without it.Validation
npm test: 134 tests passed, including fresh builds and artifact checks.git diff --checkpassed.
