Follow-up to my IPA post: the gap I noticed was real, so I built a free IPA + audio tool. Honest critique welcome.

Hey, a few weeks ago I posted here asking if I was alone in being obsessed with IPA. Got a lot of comments. Most people had never heard of it. The few who use it swore by it. And a bunch of learners showed up saying they'd love to use it but couldn't find a tool that actually had both IPA and audio in one place. Spent some time after that looking myself. It's true, most tools have one or the other, not both. So I built a free one. Paste a sentence, get IPA, hit play for the audio. Works in 53 languages, from French and Japanese to Hindi and Swahili. French liaisons are handled, and language-specific quirks get explained in a short tip below the IPA. If you've got 30 seconds and a phrase in your target language you've always struggled with, throw it in and tell me what's broken. submitted by /u/ArchiTechOfTheFuture [link] [comments]
