Using Python, how could I check for the pronunciation of certain

context. like the 'hardness' in the r in the word nigger

Looks like it's time to learn linguistics

Oh, and it doesn't necessarily have to be Python (it's the language i'm learning right now), I just want to know how you'd go about this problem in general.

Yeah, been wanting to dive into the subject. Good time to do it.

I'd just query the wiktionary API, get the data and look for the phonology of the word, written in the International Phonetic Alphabet (/ˈfæɡət/). Then use this as a basis for the analysis.

With a language like English it's nearly impossible outside of having a dictionary lookup. There are rules (g generally only sounds like [dʒ] before i or e for example) but they are just as often broken.
With a language that has a very strong mapping from spelling to pronunciation like Polish you would have better luck.

Good luck.

Is this some hidden, obscure gif vs gif thread?

Seems easy enough to implement, thanks.

What is this for?

I'm trying to be build a dictionary of phonetic mnemonics where I can assign words to numbers in order to remember them easier. Each number 0-9 is associated with a particular consonant.

So, rather than trying to come up with a suitable word on the spot, I'm building of a database of numbers with a word(s) assigned to them so I can look them up whenever I need to remember a certain number.

Oh, and letters such as 'g' and 'c' can be used as distinct consonants depending on how they're pronounced, so I need a module that can distinguish that in order to build this database properly.

You are delving into the realm of AI hardmode.


Good luck.

So you mean each phoneme is associated with a distinct digit.
