syllabifyr

Travis-CI Build StatusCRAN_Status_Badge

The goal of syllabify is to provide tidy syllabification of phonetic transcriptions. So far, only CMU dict transcriptions are supported.

I’ve largely utilized the same approach as Kyle Gorman’s python implementation

Installation

syllabifyr is now on Cran

install.packages("syllabifyr")

You can also install syllabifyr from github with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("JoFrhwld/syllabifyr")

Example

library(syllabifyr)
syllabify("AO0 S T R EY1 L Y AH0")
#> # A tibble: 8 x 4
#>    syll part    phone stress
#>   <dbl> <chr>   <chr> <chr> 
#> 1     1 nucleus AO    0     
#> 2     2 onset   S     1     
#> 3     2 onset   T     1     
#> 4     2 onset   R     1
