Phonemizer -- foʊnmaɪzɚ

• The phonemizer allows simple phonemization of words and texts in many languages.
• Provides both the phonemize command-line tool and the Python functionphonemizer.phonemize. See the package's documentation.
• It is based on four backends: espeak, espeak-mbrola, festival andsegments. The backends have different properties and capabilities resumed in table below. The backend choice is let to the user.
  • espeak-ng is a Text-to-Speech software supporting a lot of languages and IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) output.
  • espeak-ng-mbrolauses the SAMPA phonetic alphabet instead of IPA but does not preserve word boundaries.
  • festival is another Tex-to-Speech engine. Its phonemizer backend currently supports only American English. It uses a custom phoneset, but it allows tokenization at the syllable level.
  • segments is a Unicode tokenizer that build a phonemization from a grapheme to phoneme mapping provided as a file by the user.
