Hello- I have extracted the most likely pronunciation for each of about 6100 words in the TIMIT database. If you would like to get these pronunciations, they are available via anonymous ftp from ftp.icsi.berkeley.edu in the directory pub/speech. The file is called "TIMIT.mostlikely.Z". Here is a small piece of that file: 10 a ax 11 abbreviate ix bcl b r iy v iy ey dx 12 abdomen ae bcl d ix m ix n 13 abides q ax bcl b ay dcl z Each entry if made up of two lines. The first line has the word number followed by the spelling of the word. The second line contains the transcription of the word using the set of 61 TIMIT phones. A little clarification: The transcriptions are taken directly from the hand-labeled TIMIT database. As you might imagine, many words occured several times in the database. Not every instance of a word was transcribed in exactly the same way. So what I did was to take the transcription that occured most often. That is what is in this file. If you have any questions or comments, please let me know. I hope this is helpful to someone. -Chuck Wooters -- Chuck Wooters wooters@icsi.berkeley.edu
