The NRL Report 7948 describes an algorithm for converting English letter sequences to phonemes. This is implemented in various places (such as rsynth's english.c file).
Rsynth also has a ruleset for German in the deutsch.c file.
These rules should be in an external file, with support for the NRL rules and the rsynth modified rules. Rsynth hard codes these rules, so needs to be modified.
