I ported Allison Parrish's Pronouncing python library, an interface to the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary, to clojure:
https://github.com/wiseman/clj-pronouncing You can use it to count syllables, find rhymes, etc.: user> (require '[com.lemonodor.pronouncing :as pro]) user> (->> "literally" pro/phones-for-word (map pro/syllable-count)) (4 3) ;; Some people say it with 4 syllables, some with 3. user> (require '[com.lemonodor.pronouncing :as pro]) user> (pro/rhymes "failings") ("mailings" "railings" "tailings") I use it in songku, which finds haiku in song titles: https://songku.herokuapp.com/ John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
