while working on a feature, i found this..surah yaseen first aya 's absolute aya number is 3705 as returned using QuranPropertiesUtils...now if you search for 3705 in the actual root analysis file (quran-root.txt), you fill find many occurunces that even refer to the second, third etc word of the ayah while know this aya has only one work

jazakallah khair

Wa Alaykumassalam,

This is true, because Bismillah is counted with every sura's first aya
(except Fatiha in which it's a separate aya, and Tawbah which has no
Bismillah).

Still, the root database has some ambiguities when you want to find
root for a Quran word. It may return then one, two or more roots. I
discussed these ambiguities here:
