espeak for text to speech

[farooqkz]

Hi,
Espeak also converts Persian texts to speech, Is adding it to the list a good idea?
I'm not sure that it pronounces all words correctly.

Hi Farooq. It would be great If you could check several persian words and get an approximate for the precision. For example you'll test 100 persian words then 78 of them will have correct pronounciaton, you can mention the precision of Espeak (78%) in the resource.

I just tested these words:

سلام
نفهم
الاغ
خر
حیوان
میان
ایران
کوروش
عراق
رایانه
نامه
گفتوگو

It was somehow odd, but all words were correct except کوروش.
Were can I get a list of persian words?

[iraj-jelo]

Yes. you can :)

Thanks
