[Corpora-List] summary: automated transcription of English words

[Marco Baroni]

Dear all,

About a week ago I asked about programs and tools to transcribe English
words phonetically.

I would like to thank those who replied to my query: Ngoni Chipere,
Bruce L. Lambert, Daniel Walker, H-K Michael Kim and Pete Whitelock.

The following resources were pointed out:

* A discussion about the same topic on this list:

* The Moby lists:

* The KAEPS homepage:

above):
