It would be nice to have a way to show aspiration in words. For example, pin turns into pʰɪn when the “Show aspiration” option is turned on.
But also have exceptions for some words when the “Show aspiration” is on, for example: span, spin, stop.
Thanks.
Provide a link for the translated audio.
Pronounce a phonetically spelled word instead of an English word.
I would like to have the option to turn on aspiration, labialization, etc.
Option to show syllables in the output

Спасибо. Большинство есть в британской версии, остальные добавим. С американским нужно будет подождать пока.
It would be nice if there was a way to highlight a specific sound on both the text and transcription. For instance, if I want to highlight /æ/, it would display “Apples and oranges are different fruits”, “ˈæpᵊlz ænd ˈɒrɪnʤɪz ɑː ˈdɪfᵊrᵊnt fruːts”.
That way I could quickly identify which words contain a sound I’m practising, instead of manually search for the specific sound, copy-pasting the text on Word and highlighting it myself there.
Fantastic, thank you for the clear use case as well.
Hey team,I search for phonetics tools and see your toPhonetics, I want to donate a new UI design, a version more friendly with users, please see this link: https://dribbble.com/shots/21644550-Phonety-Phonetic-lookup-website, and let me know if you want to have UI specifics to update yours, my email is **********@gmail.com. Appreciate your works, hope to lend a hand. Thankss.
Thank you for the offer!
Indicate and categorize non-standard utterances: defect, affect, accent, idiosyncratic, foreign, dialect variation, “just plain wrong,” etc. Identify any processes in play: voice assimilation, anticipatory co-articulation, etc. Thanks!
Thank you for suggestions. I’ve added this to the backlog, although frankly it’s quite a bit more than we can chew at the moment.
It would be great to type words in French, German and Spanish and for the IPA symbols of those words to appear.
