Method Detail

phonemise

public String phonemise(String text,
               String pos,
               StringBuilder g2pMethod)

Description copied from class: JPhonemiser

Phonemise the word text. This starts with a simple lexicon lookup, followed by some heuristics, and finally applies letter-to-sound rules if nothing else was successful.

Overrides:

phonemise in class JPhonemiser

Parameters:

text - the textual (graphemic) form of a word.

pos - the part-of-speech of the word

g2pMethod - This is an awkward way to return a second String parameter via a StringBuilder. If a phonemisation of the text is found, this parameter will be filled with the method of phonemisation ("lexicon", ... "rules").

Returns:

a phonemisation of the text if one can be generated, or null if no phonemisation method was successful.
