- Description
- The Icelandic Pronunciation Dictionary contains manually revised transcriptions in four pronunciation variants of Icelandic: the standard pronunciation, the northern post-aspiration variant ("harðmæli"), the north-eastern variant post-aspiration + voiced pronunciation, and the southern hv-variant. For descriptions of Icelandic pronunciation variants, see the respective documents `IPA_Pronunciation.pdf` or `SAMPA_Pronunciation.pdf` (the documents have identical content but the former describes the matter using the IPA phonetic alphabet and the latter uses the SAMPA phonetic alphabet). The file `sampa_ipa_single.tsv` contains the set of SAMPA symbols used in the dictionaries and their mappings to IPA on the one hand and on a custom developed single-character alphabet developed for use in end-to-end speech synthesis. The project is funded by the Icelandic Government as a part of the Language Technology Programme for Icelandic 2019–2023 which is described in the following publication: Anna Björk Nikulásdóttir, Jón Guðnason, Anton Karl Ingason, Hrafn Loftsson, Eiríkur Rögnvaldsson, Einar Freyr Sigurðsson, Steinþór Steingrímsson. 2020. Language Technology Programme for Icelandic 2019–2023. Proceedings of LREC 2020 (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.09244.pdf) Íslensk framburðarorðabók inniheldur handyfirfarnar hljóðritanir í fjórum framburðartilbrigðum íslensku: það sem kalla má hefðbundinn framburð, norðlenskt harðmæli, harðmæli + raddaðan framburð sem einkennandi er fyrir norð-austurland, og sunnlenskan hv-framburð. Nánari lýsingar á framburði og framburðartilbrigðum í íslensku er að finna í skjölunum `IPA_Pronunciation.pdf` eða `SAMPA_Pronunciation.pdf` (þessi skjöl eru eins að öllu leyti, nema að fyrra skjalið notar IPA-hljóðritunarstafrófið en það seinna SAMPA-stafrófið til þess að lýsa framburði). Skjalið `sampa_ipa_single.tsv` inniheldur lista SAMPA hljóðritunartákna sem notuð eru í orðabókinni og varpanir yfir á tákn í IPA annars vegar og yfir á nýtt stafróf hins vegar, þar sem hvert hljóð er alltaf táknað með einum bókstaf/tölustaf, en slíkt stafróf getur nýst vel í "end-to-end" talgervingu. Verkefnið er hluti af Máltækniáætlun fyrir íslensku 2019-2023.
