# Phonemizer -- *foʊnmaɪzɚ*
* The phonemizer allows simple phonemization of words and texts in many languages.
* Provides both the `phonemize` command-line tool and the Python function
`phonemizer.phonemize`. See [the package's documentation](https://bootphon.github.io/phonemizer/).
* It is based on four backends: **espeak**, **espeak-mbrola**, **festival** and
**segments**. The backends have different properties and capabilities resumed
in table below. The backend choice is let to the user.
* [espeak-ng](https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng) is a Text-to-Speech
software supporting a lot of languages and IPA (International Phonetic
Alphabet) output.
* [espeak-ng-mbrola](https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/blob/master/docs/mbrola.md)
uses the SAMPA phonetic alphabet instead of IPA but does not preserve word
boundaries.
* [festival](http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival) is another
Tex-to-Speech engine. Its phonemizer backend currently supports only
American English. It uses a [custom phoneset][festival-phoneset], but it
allows tokenization at the syllable level.
* [segments](https://github.com/cldf/segments) is a Unicode tokenizer that
build a phonemization from a grapheme to phoneme mapping provided as a file
by the user.
