NAME

unicode.pl - Phonetic encoding demonstrations with the word "Unicode".

SYNOPSIS

./unicode.pl

DESCRIPTION

This is a simple demonstration script that generates keys for the word "unicode" under the 10 supported languages. This is simply the only (non-political) example word I could find written in all 10 languages.

Thanks to Mark Davis and his wonderful file:

"Unicode" may not be the ideal example word because of the way the "U" sound is treated in English. "Y" is not treated as a vowel in the non-English modules, but this may have to be changed.
