Phonemes in output - is it actual or is it from the dictionary? #310

Open talentcoco opened 2 years ago

Hi I am trying to find out if the phonemes that are listed in the output are the actual phone utterances or just listed from the dictionary. I am trying to find out if phoneme was correctly pronounced? Is there a way to identify the mispronounced phonemes in Gentle output

I'm virtually certain that it's just the phoneme list from the dictionary entry of each word.

A few words do have multiple pronunciations, so in these cases Gentle may choose the most similar pronunciation dictionary phoneme list, but (to the best of my knowledge - I'm only a user) this is as good as Gentle currently gets.
