## Reference

## Installation
```bash
pip install laonlp-enhanced
```

## Usage
```python
from laonlp_enhanced import tokenize

text = "ສະບາຍດີ 245,394"
tokens = tokenize(text)
print(tokens)  # Output: ['ສະບາຍດີ', '245,394']
```

## POS Tagging with laonlp
Combine tokenization with POS tagging using the laonlp library:
```python
from laonlp_enhanced import tokenize, pos_tag

text = "ສະບາຍດີ 245,394"
tokens = tokenize(text)
tagged = pos_tag(tokens)
print(tagged)  # Output: [('ສະບາຍດີ', 'NOUN'), ('245,394', 'NUM')]
```
