For every Roman character you type, a popup menu displays a group of phonetic symbols that share the same sound or shape beneath typed character. Use arrow keys to select the proper symbol then hit the Enter button. I2Speak also supports the following features: 1. The Sampa English Keyboard lets you type English phonetics using Roman characters according to SAMPA (Speech Assessment Methods Phonetic Alphabet) rules. 2. The IPA English Keyboard provides you with a full English phonetics keyboard. Press the symbol of interest using a suitable input device. 3. You can type directly on your physical keyboard or on the virtual on-screen keyboard using a suitable input device such as mouse or touch screen device. 4. You can change the keyboard symbols by selecting another layout from the list box located above the virtual keyboard. 5. For every keyboard layout, more symbols can be displayed by pressing the CAPS Lock. 6. When you hover the mouse over an English phonetic button, a slick tooltip will show some example English words. 7. You can save typed phonetics as an MS-Word file by clicking the Save button, copy them to clipboard using the Copy button, or post them to Twitter, Facebook, etc by clicking the desired button. You can test the tool here: http://www.i2speak.com i2Speak is a product by sciweavers.org, an academic network for scientist and researchers.
