A useful website for unique name pronunciation!
Posted: Sun Apr 11, 2021 12:57 pm
Hello devs!
I found a useful website to help with pronunciation and thought I’d share! My visual novel has characters with unique names, and since it does not have voice acting, players often wonder how the names were intended to be pronounced by the developers.
This website allows you to type in a word and have it spelled out phonetically for you, and in some cases, even has associated audio clips with it! The uses are limited, but they reset every hour, so if you have a large cast or extensive terminology, you will need to space out the entries if you’d like to continue using the free service.
This could be used to help players pronounce all kinds of unique or fantastical names: characters, locations, special moves, magical terminology, foods - the list goes on!

Hope someone finds this as useful as I did!
