ipa-translate

ipa-translate is a Rust crate implementing multiple common standards for converting ASCII text into Unicode IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) text. The currently implemented standards are:

Adding ipa-translate to your project

As with practically any other Rust crate, ipa-translate is hosted on crates.io, and has a GitHub page using which you may clone the source directly or contribute to the project. To add ipa-translate to your Cargo-based Rust project, run:

$ cargo add ipa-translate

$ git clone https://github.com/tirimid/ipa-translate

ipa-translate 0.1.8+ has only one dependency, lazy-static, which a massive number of other crates already depend on, so no other dependencies will be added if you choose to use it in any reasonably sized project. The core functionality of ipa-translate, the actual ASCII-IPA translation, is done using functions from the Rust standard library since version 0.1.8+, keeping the implementation minimal and fast.

Using ipa-translate

use ipa_translate; fn main() { let ipa = "prʲɪvʲet"; let xsampa = "pr_jIv_jet"; let praat = r"pr^jicv^jet"; let branner = "prj^Ivj^et"; let sil = "prj^i=vj^et"; // forward translation. assert_eq!(ipa_translate::xsampa_to_ipa(xsampa), ipa); assert_eq!(ipa_translate::praat_to_ipa(praat), ipa); assert_eq!(ipa_translate::branner_to_ipa(branner), ipa); assert_eq!(ipa_translate::sil_to_ipa(sil), ipa); // inverse translation. assert_eq!(ipa_translate::ipa_to_xsampa(ipa), xsampa); assert_eq!(ipa_translate::ipa_to_praat(ipa), praat); assert_eq!(ipa_translate::ipa_to_branner(ipa), branner); assert_eq!(ipa_translate::ipa_to_sil(ipa), sil); }
