[edit] Summary
English vowels from the Kinesthetic English-IPA Vowel Wheel pronounced within the following words: eye, apple, get, eight, it, eat, boot, foot, o, ought, are, up. The vowels within these words are the following:
| word | vowel |
|---|---|
| eye | aɪ |
| apple | æ, ə |
| get | ɛ |
| eight | eɪ |
| it | ɪ |
| eat | i |
| boot | u |
| foot | ʊ |
| o | oʊ |
| ought | ɔ |
| are | ɑ |
| up | ʌ |
The words were synthesized with TextAloud.
[edit] How the file was created
- The Windows application TextAloud read to a WAV file.
- The WAV file was opened with Sound Recorder and slowed down eight times (8x) before saving the slowed down version with another name.
- The file from the last step was converted to OGG using the Smart WAV Converter application.
- Ironically, I listen to the OGG file using MPlayer OS X on a Mac.
