I'm looking for a IPA converter such as truespel.com has for truespel.

I put in my "beige fox" story with all 40 US English sounds in it ("creating chaos" was added to show vowel next to vowel stressed and unstressed).

That quick beige fox jumped into the air over each thin dog.  Look out, I shout, for he's foiled you again, creating chaos.


I got the the Foreignword IPA conversion below (If it pastes well):

DQt kwIk beiZ fAks jumped 'Intuù D« E«r 'oUv«r itS TIn dOg lUk AUt aI SAUt fOr hiz fçild juù «'gEn creating 'keiAs


In truespel

~~That kwik baezh faaks jumpd intue thee air oever eech thhin daug.  Look out, Ie shout, for heez foild yue uggen, kree"aeteeng kae'aas.~~
