HOW I MADE IT
I built on top of my word processor program
(link to project)">(link to project)
I recorded my voice saying most of the spanish phonemes (letter-sounds), and then I mapped each letter to the proper sound.
FUTURE IDEAS
There is lots of room for improvement. For one thing it doesn't pay attention to "ch" "ll" or other special letter combinations. Also, my Spanish phonemes aren't that good, so if someone who speaks good Spanish could re-record them that would be great. I hope to make it sound better in the future, or maybe someone else can.
This project was partially inspired by wordo

FIXES
Fixed bug should work smoothly (though not sounding smooth yet) for one full page (multipage still needs work)

If you type random letters with no spaces, it sounds like a rap.

QUOTE

thanks. anyone... please record them and upload them if you get the chance. that would be awesome.
Hola, Hi. I think you may need to recorder the sounds of spanish syllables instead of single phonemes. I tried several words and they sound very chunky.
¡Grande! ¡Brillante! Sugerencia: Haga más para diversas idiomas.
Hola, puedo contribuir con este proyecto, si necesitas algunas grabaciones de voz, mi idioma natal es español.
Maybe someone who is good in Spanish could also add sprites for the accented characters.
The 'll' isnt making the y sound but otherwise very impressive.
Cool! Yet another original project from you that does something nobody ever tried before. I'm impressed!
Muy buena idea! :)
