greglee, mcilroy, and navy directories here are older (70's and 80's) text to speech systems that can be used if your host isn't capable of running a modern text to speech engine (which is what I usually use to extract a phonemic representation of a word, that I then convert to IPA format). I use the IPA representations in my phonetic spelling correction code. dʒˈʌŋɡəl (E-Speak) dʒʌŋɡəl (Festival) ʤʌŋgəl (F-lite) dʒʌŋəl (NanoTTS) However if the user does not have one of these suites installed, we can still get an effective approximation to the phonetics by using these old lightweight programs from the 70's which are included with this software... they may not be good enough for text to speech but given the correction already being done by the phonetic matching algorithm, the small errors may not be enough to affect the results. dʒʌŋgǝl (Navy) dʒʌŋgl (McIlroy) dʒʌɾ̃gəlˠ (GregLee) PS The file above will look sensible once you download it. My web hosting service doesn't display Unicode for text files.
