More languages

[AndrewNLauder]

Hi Irvin,

How might someone add support for an additional language?
Can this be used against the existing English common voice corpus?
I'd be curious to see if the phonetic coverage is sufficient for training a model.

Thanks!
Andrew

Hi @AndrewNLauder

I had little knowledge about English linguistics, which is different to Chinese in phoneme system.

In my imaginary, it should be much easier to estimate the phonetic coverage of English, because we don't need to "covert logograph character into syllable".

I think theoretically we need a syllables table of English. Need some linguistic support...

Can you give an example? Isn’t this information available in Wikipedia?
