Yousif A. El-Imam & Zuraidah Mohd Don (2005). Rules and Algorithms for Phonetic Transcription of multidisciplinary
Standard Malay. IEICE - Transactions on Information and Systems. Volume E88-D Issue 10, October
2005. Pages 2354-2372. Oxford University Press Oxford, UK
Phonetic transcription of text is an indispensable component of text-to-speech (TTS) systems and is used in
acoustic modeling for speech recognition and other natural language processing applications. One approach
to the transcription of written text into phonetic entities or sounds is to use a set of well-defined context and
language-dependent rules. The process of transcribing text into sounds starts by preprocessing the text and
representing it by lexical items to which the rules are applicable. The rules can be segregated into phonemic
and phonetic rules. Phonemic rules operate on graphemes to convert them into phonemes. Phonetic rules
operate on phonemes and convert them into context-dependent phonetic entities with actual sounds.
Converting from written text into actual sounds, developing a comprehensive set of rules, and transforming
the rules into implementable algorithms for any language cause several problems that have their origins in the
relative lack of correspondence between the spelling of the lexical items and their sound contents. For
Standard Malay (SM) these problems are not as severe as those for languages of complex spelling systems,
such as English and French, but they do exist. In this paper, developing a comprehensive computerized
system for processing SM text and transcribing it into phonetic entities and evaluating the performance of
this system, irrespective of the application, is discussed. In particular, the following issues are dealt with in
this paper: (1) the spelling and other problems of SM writing and their impact on converting graphemes into
phonemes, (2) the development of a comprehensive set of grapheme-to-phoneme rules for SM, (3) a
description of the phonetic variations of SM or how the phonemes of SM vary in context and the
development of a set of phoneme-to-phonetic transcription rules, (4) the formulation of the phonemic and
phonetic rules into algorithms that are applicable to the computer-based processing of input SM text, and (5)
the evaluation of the performance of the process of converting SM text into actual sounds by the above
mentioned methods.

Tong-Fredericks, C. (1984). Types of oral communication activities and the language they generate: A
comparison, System, 12(2), 133-146. DOI: 10.1016/0346-251X(84)90023-X
The study aims to compare the language generated by different kinds of oral communication activities. In the
experiment reported on, three different kinds of oral communication activities were performed by each of the
six pairs of students working simultaneously; the language produced by them was tape-recorded and
transcribed. The language generated was first compared in terms of speed of speaking, frequency of turns
taken and frequency of self-correction. Looking more closely, it appears that when engaged in the first kind
of activity, i.e. a goal-directed, problem-solving oral communication activity, students generated language
markedly wider in terms of communicative function but narrower in range of form and lexis. When doing the
other two kinds of activity, i.e. role-play and ‘authentic’/‘natural’ interaction on the other hand, students seem
to pay more attention to accuracy and range of form and lexis. The relative degree to which a student draws
on his communicative and linguistic resources seems to be related to the communication needs of the
particular kind of activity engaged in.
