Don't read all the voice files on start, wait until they are needed. Added 'W' code to _rules files to mean: further letters follow while spelling a word. Lang=fr replace [r] with [R], shorten [R] slightly git-svn-id: https://espeak.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/espeak/trunk@4 d46cf337-b52f-0410-862d-fd96e6ae7743
These are the spelling-to-phoneme pronunciation rules and exceptions lists for each language. You can make changes and then re-compile them to produce the "_dict" file in the espeak-data data directory (eg. "en_dict") which the speak program used. Use: speak --compile=<voicename> to compile the data for a particular language. It automatically replaces the corresponding _dict file in espeak-data, ready for use by the speak program. An "_extra" file, (eg. en_extra) can be used to in addition to the "_list" file to add exception words without disturbing the official "_list" file. It is treated as an extension of the "_list" file. Language Notes: Russian. An additional dictionary of Russian words and their stress positions is available at http://espeak.sourceforge.net/data/russian_data.zip. This allows eSpeak to put the stress on the correct syllable of Russian words.
