Adding accent's type to phonetics

Open nnnhi opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

It would be better if the API can return the accent's type - US or UK in English - in phonetics.

Can you tell me what accent type is?

For example, IPA of hello is /heˈləʊ/ in UK or /heˈloʊ/ in US. In json, it looks like: "phonetics": [ { "text": "/heˈləʊ/", "audio": "link", "accent" : "UK" }, { "text": "/hɛˈloʊ/", "audio": "link", "accent" : "US" } ],

IPA differs for different region?
