WikiPron

WikiPron is a command line toolkit for scraping grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) data from Wiktionary.

Installation

WikiPron requires Python 3.6+. It is available through pip:

pip install wikipron

Usage

After installation, the terminal command wikipron will be available. As a basic example, the following command scrapes G2P data for French (with the ISO language code fr):

wikipron fr

By default, the results appear on the terminal, where each line has the orthography of a word, followed by a tab and then the word's pronunciation in IPA.

For example commands using advanced options, the languages/wikipron/scrape script shows how a multilingual G2P dataset can be created.

For a full list of command-line options, please run wikipron -h.

The underlying module can also be used from Python. A standard workflow looks like:

import wikipron

config = wikipron.Config(key="fr")  # French, with default options.
for word, pron in wikipron.scrape(config):
    ...
