Free viewer/search tool for AmEPD

Open JiriVaclavik opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Thank you very much for releasing AmEPD! I really like this dictionary, and I've developed software for exploring it (along with CMUdict). It also supports searching by pronunciation and very simple wildcard matching. Anyone is welcome to use it. I apologize for posting this as an issue, but I couldn't find any better way. Here's the link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pronundict/

Nice work @JiriVaclavik !

Is okay to ask what method / algorithm did you use to convert ARPAbet to IPA?

@lauverityhill I'm glad you like it. :-) It is my own algorithm. Each ARPAbet symbol is converted to one or two IPA symbols. And syllable boundaries are only guessed based on a set of possible syllable onsets.
