A PC-KIMMO-based Bi-directional Graphemic/PhoneticConverter for Modern Greek

KYRIAKOS N. SGARBAS, NIKOS D. FAKOTAKIS and GEORGE K. KOKKINAKIS

Wire Communications Laboratory, Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, University of Patras Greece

This report confronts the problem of automatic conversion from graphemic to phonetic transcription and vice versa for the Modern Greek language. A single representation is used for both directions of word transformation, based on PCKIMMO, a development environment originally used for the implementation of two-level morphological processors. The fifty-two two-level rules that are presented have been tested on a set of the 10,000 most frequent Modern Greek words and they describe the Greek phonology in adequate detail for use by a speech-processingsystem.
