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:
