Hello, my dear colleagues and friends,
I �m looking for a site which would show the phonetic transcription of a sentence that I write. Does anybody use such a site and would be so kind and give me the address?� Thank you very much in advance,� Greetings, Mish |

Hi Mish
I �ve never seen a site which would transcribe what you write. I �d like to hear it too if someone knows of such software.
There is a site though where you can type the pronunciation yourself http://ipa.typeit.org/

Dear Baiba,�
thank you, I found this one and it would be nice but you know what: I �m never 100% sure that my transcription is correct. I mean I can read it without problems, but my weakness is transcribing it correctly for my kids� I found this site http://upodn.com/phun.asp but I don �t think it is fully correct, so I wanted to try if somebody uses something so that I can compare it and be sure as it would be really proven by my colleagues� Hugs, Mish |

Mish, the link that Baiba gave you lets you cut and paste the transcription in here. If you post your things here, I can proof them for you...... ɾʃθ�ʒɪːɔʊ (just playing with the signs;o)

Interesting site, Mish! But you may be right regarding its reliability.
I typed a few words and saw the transcription was not very precise, at least according to Oxford English dictionary (write eastward or plumber, as an example).

What you can do is to download the IPA keyboard so that you can type the sentence using phonetics symbols..
That program does not change ordinary spelling into phonetics. You have to do it...

Hi my dear colleagues,
I�ve been looking for some editor of English transcription for a long time. Three weeks ago, I was succesful, at last.  So, I �d like to commend it to you. You can download it from here
I�m sure you�ll be satisfied as I am. It is easy to work with it.
Have a nice Sunday evening (at least here in Europe).
