Hi,
I have to ask again:
Where do I find the "Phonemes" format?
After adapting to the existing pronounciation lexikon my test phrase
is "Du bringst Blumen!"
It is read if it comes without any additional tags. But as soon as I
try a sampa transcription nearly following the de.txt entry, I get an
error message.
The beatles and button example of your website works. The button from
there is missing in de.txt, while the beatles are there, and
nevertheless the example works with its sampa tags. Why?
So how are the standards of admissible sampa tags?
In which cases can users add pronunciation tags?
I attach the log file clips of interest.
Cheers Brigitte
