Shav: Translates Webpage Text to Shavian Alphabet
Shav is a Chrome add-on developed by Eric Roshan-Eisner. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically listed as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This free program allows users to translate webpage text from the Latin alphabet to the Shavian alphabet.
With Shav, users can practice their Shavian reading comprehension on their favorite websites or even in their inbox. All it takes is one click to translate all the text on the page. For those unfamiliar with the Shavian alphabet, it is a phonemic alphabet that was created to represent the English language. It offers a unique and alternative way to read and write English.
Shav combines the pronunciation data from American-accented CMUdict and English-accented Britfone to provide a comprehensive translation experience. By using both dialects, Shav is able to make notable distinctions in sounds, such as differentiating between words like Mary-marry-merry, cot-caught-court, and bother-father-farther. This attention to detail enhances the accuracy and effectiveness of the translation.
Please note that Shav does not provide any developer contact information or encourage users to reach out to the developer for feedback or suggestions. It is a user-friendly tool that allows for easy translation of webpage text to the Shavian alphabet.
