Converts strings between two character sets
pip install script-converter==0.0.2
This is a simple tool to transliterate a given string using two character sets.
The mapping between the sets must be provided in a .csv file, which has two columns, IPA and Ortho
Use is script_converter.convert(STRING, MAPPING_FILE_PATH), which will return a transliterated string.
Per default, the Ortho values will be replaced by the IPA values.
If transliteration should happen the other way around, the option to_ipa=False can be used.
I illustrate the functionality using Vamale as an example.
The IPA and orthographic representations of all Vamale phonemes are listed in a file vamale_mapping.csv:
| IPA | Ortho |
|---|---|
| xh | x |
| x | ɣ |
| xhw | xʷ |
| â | ã |
| ê | ẽ |
| î | ĩ |
| ô | õ |
| û | ũ |
| g | ᵑɡ |
| d | ⁿd |
| j | ᶮɟ |
| mw | mʷ |
| pw | pʷ |
| vw | vʷ |
| fw | fʷ |
| phw | pʰʷ |
| bw | ᵐbʷ |
| b | ᵐb |
| ph | pʰ |
| kh | kʰ |
| th | tʰ |
| hm | m̥ |
| hny | ɲ̊ |
| ny | ɲ |
| hn | n̥ |
| hl | l̥ |
| aa | aː |
| ee | eː |
| ii | iː |
| oo | oː |
| uu | uː |
| ââ | ãː |
| êê | ẽː |
| îî | ĩː |
| ôô | õː |
| ûû | ũː |
| a | a |
| e | e |
| i | i |
| o | o |
| u | u |
| ng | ŋ |
Now, the example sentence i beeng a kon hnyimake ko li aman a a vwa ('My friend is thinking about the things he is doing') can be converted:
print(script_converter.convert("i beeng a kon hnyimake ko li aman a a vwa", "vamale_mapping.csv"))
This results in the output i ᵐbeːŋ a kon ɲ̊imake ko li aman a a vʷa.
This, in turn, could be converted back to i beeng a kon hnyimake ko li aman a a vwa using the following command:
print(script_converter.convert("i ᵐbeːŋ a kon ɲ̊imake ko li aman a a vʷa", "vamale_mapping.csv", to_ipa=False))
