Mara Hvistendahl, Wired, 18 May 2020 For languages that use phonemes, pictographs, or characters, all bets are off. Caroline Delbert, Popular Mechanics, 27 Feb. 2020 Some have contrasting tones while others do not; Japanese and Spanish have 25 phonemes (distinct units of sound) compared to 40 in English and Thai; and there are a few hundred distinct syllables in Japanese, versus almost 7,000 English. Olivia Goldhill, Quartz, 8 Sep. 2019 While phonemes help convey meaning, speech-recognition software does not account for unintended repetitions of them, according to Rudzicz. Kevin Wheeler, Curbed, 12 Dec. 2018 This involves breaking up speech samples into distinct sounds (known as phonemes) and then stitching them back together to form new words and sentences. James Vincent, The Verge, 20 Nov. 2018 Ryabov suggests that the variation seen in these pulses represents the equivalent of phonemes, or words, and that the strings of pulses could reasonably be considered dolphin sentences. National Geographic, 15 Sep. 2016 Next up, game mode challenges the child to identify certain letters, phonemes and pictures — such as asking for the picture that begins with a certain letter or letter sound. Leander Kahney, WIRED, 12 Dec. 2002 The resultant voice, which is comprised of the person’s phonemes, or the distinct units of sound that distinguish one word from another in each language, doesn’t sound even remotely computer-generated or made up.
