[io] experience with phonetical encoders in other languages ?

Hi,

I would like to know wether the phonetical encoders found in commons-io 
have been used by someone with different langauges than English.
I'm pretty sure they fail for Chinese at least but I'd like to know if 
Soundex and Metaphone have a chance for, say, european languages...

thanks

paul
