arpabetToIPA

public static String arpabetToIPA(String s)
                           throws IllegalArgumentException

Converts an Arpabet phonemic transcription to an IPA phonemic transcription. Note that, somewhat unusually, the stress symbol will precede the vowel rather than the syllable. This is because Arpabet does not mark syllable boundaries.

Parameters:

s - The Darpabet phonemic transcription to convert.

Returns:

The IPA equivalent of s.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if a phoneme is unknown.
