SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It solves the problem of manually looking up pronunciations by providing fast, offline-capable IPA (and romanization) conversion for multiple languages using prebuilt IPA databases.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • URL-parameter agent interface: Generate IPA output via a simple browser-accessible endpoint.
  • Multi-language support: Translate for many languages with language-specific processors (e.g., character-based vs longest-match).
  • Format & variant handling: Request raw IPA or specific romanization/IPA formatting for supported languages (including variants such as US/UK, FR/QC, ES-MX, and Vietnamese C/N/S).
  • With words / learning workflow support: Designed to support learning modes in the main web app (agent focuses on plain-text output).

Quick Start

Ask the agent endpoint to translate Cantonese text “你好” into Jyutping by using the URL: https://toolbox.lotusfa.com/ipa/agent.html?language=cantonese&format=Jyutping&input=%E4%BD%A0%E5%A5%BD
