Differently written words may have similar pronunciations. In computerized textual analysis for English vocabularies, a code mapping is available, accessible in terms of a database function named 'Soundex'. Depending on pronunciation, codes are generated which are utilized for word suggestion in searching, similarity detection, text mining etc. However, this Soundex is not multilingual and supports English language only. This paper describes designing and development of Soundex for Assamese language.
