Hi Madiha

In that case it sounds like a lot of words won't be in the dictionary, 
which is probably why people are suggesting something like festival. It 
generates a pronunciation for words it doesn't know.

One way to get the pronunciation from festival is:

echo "(utt.relation.print (utt.synth (Utterance Text \"Pronounce this.\"))\"Segment\")" | festival

which can go in a script to process the English text.
