Coba fungsi ini.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION myngram(mystr TEXT, n INT) RETURNS TEXT[]
AS $$
DECLARE
str VARCHAR;
arr TEXT[];
BEGIN
str := lpad(mystr, n - 1 + char_length(mystr), ' ');
str := rpad(str, n - 1 + char_length(str), ' ');
arr := array[]::TEXT[];
FOR i IN 1 .. char_length(str) - n + 1 LOOP
arr := arr || substring(str from i for n);
END LOOP;
RETURN arr;
END
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;
