Summary
This dataset is a phonetic dictionary focused on Isan (Northeastern Thai) pronunciations. It is structured to handle linguistic complexities such as:
- Phonetic Variations (เสียงแปร): Words that have multiple valid pronunciations without changing the meaning.
- Homographs (คำพ้องรูป): Words that are spelled the same but have different pronunciations and meanings depending on the context.
The data is provided in TSV (Tab-Separated Values) format.
Supported Tasks
- Grapheme-to-Phoneme (G2P): Converting Thai script to phonetic transcriptions (IPA).
- Dialect Analysis: Studying phonological differences between Standard Thai and Isan.
- Speech Synthesis (TTS): Providing accurate pronunciation data for Isan dialect synthesis.
