GENERATING PHONEMES FROM WRITTEN THAI USING LEXICAL ANALYSIS BASED ON REGULAR EXPRESSIONS

Abstract

This document describes the approach and techniques used in software that has been developed to generate phonemes from written Thai. This software has been used to generate the phonetic transcription of Thai words in a Thai-Dutch dictionary. The most important part of this software is a lexical analyzer based on regular expressions for matching patterns in the Thai writing system. Because most software tools that use regular expressions are still based on the 7-bit ASCII set, a mapping of Thai characters to ASCII-characters has been used.
