I have released a new version with the changes by @mal: fixed typos found by him as well as updated his Finnish translation. Thank you @mal!

I wonder if there is someone around interested in linguistics or able to spell out pronunciation of some words. Namely, Valhalla supports US English (Pirate version) for its instructions. While a joke, its a nice one and, I think, very appropriate for Sailfish. Unfortunately, TTS software does not know how to pronounce "Arrr" and few other words. What TTS software can do, is to pronounce according to given phoneme description.

So, I would like to ask for help and maybe someone here can propose their versions for words listed at https://github.com/valhalla/valhalla/issues/891 .

In Sailfish, install mimic from OpenRepos ( https://openrepos.net/content/rinigus/mimic ) and use

Code:
mimic -voice awb -ssml -t 'Some <phoneme ph="k ae p n">Capn</phoneme> wheel' -o /tmp/out.wav && gst-launch-1.0 -q filesrc location=/tmp/out.wav ! wavparse ! pulsesink
to test the phonemes.
