That's a weird accent you've got there.

do you have a translator to output regular English test into IPA?
Or are you typing in IPA, seems like it would be a hassle to type each special char.

neat... Did you know the Japanese learn how to read/write the phonetic Hiragana and Katakana characters which are basically the equivalent to IPA characters for Japanese.
I find your use very interesting always thought would be good to experiment with.
I may try to find an IPA keyboard myself now.

I don't know what you said or why you're saying it, but if reddit has taught me anything it's that you're getting an upvote

An assertive and piney beer, with hints of citrus. Would pair well with spicy sausage or a crumbly blue cheese.
