Syllable Based Transcription of English Words into Perso-Arabic Writing System
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a rule-based method for transcription of English words into the PersoArabic orthography. The method relies on the phonetic representation of English words such as the CMU pronunciation dictionary. Some of the challenging problems are the context-based vowel representation in the Perso-Arabic writing system and the mismatch between the syllabic structures of English and Persian. With some minor extensions, the method can be applied to English to Arabic transliteration as well.

متن کاملA learning method for Thai phonetization of English words
This article tackles the problem of transcribing English words using Thai phonological system. The problem exists in Thai, where modern writing often composes of English orthography, and transcribing using English phonology results unnatural. The proposed model is totally data-driven, starting by automatic grapheme-phoneme alignment, modeling transduction rules and predicting Thai syllabictones...
متن کاملApplying Finite State Morphology to Conversion Between Roman and Perso-Arabic Writing Systems
This paper presents a method for converting back and forth between the Perso-Arabic and a Romanized writing systems for Persian. Given a word in one writing system, we use finite state transducers to generate morphological analysis for the word that is subsequently used to regenerate the orthography of the word in the other writing system. The system has been implemented in XFST and LEXC.

This paper sets out the properties of a prototype notational system for the transcription of Egyptian Arabic (EA) intonation, and tests the system by comparing the results of transcription of a small corpus of spontaneous conversational speech with known facts about EA intonation from experimental studies on ‘laboratory’ (read) speech. In particular the transcription system is used here to test...
