Your website should allow people to download Audio Mp3 into the computer. Because I find your audio great

This is very useful to someone interested in learning languages, in linguistics, and in paleography (the study and decipherment of handwriting through the ages). Thanks!

The option to remove the stress mark from the letter or not to leave a space between the stressed letter and the one that follows it so as not to be under the illusion that the word is separated from each other or that it is two words

I suggest a function that can output the words’ voice, I’m using the ios app ver to transcript some -ed/-s/-ing words to improve my Enlish, also which is hard to find any voice reference in dictionaries. Tophonetic really does me a favor, but I’d like to listen to that voice directly instead of opening the app and transcripting it then listen, I’d like to pay for that function if it happens.

Provide a direct link to each transcription request. For example:
https://tophonetics.com/transcribed-phrase
or
https://tophonetics.com/id4tranScr13ed94rase

As a language teacher, I could use this to give students links to words that they mispronounce.

There is a “Convert English To IPA Phonetic Alphabet ” and an “IPA keyboard”.

I suggest creating “Convert IPA To English”

 For example, using the IPA Keyboard or similar, typing /ˈpɪ.d͡ʒɪn/ (IPA) would produce Pigeon (or words with the same pronunciation).

This is the definitive tool.

Best wishes.

Great job! I found you while searching for a speech to phonetic script app/site for students to practise and compare their utterances to RP models. does such a thing exist? Are you working towards that? Even if not, great work here. Well done!
