Hello,
I have a question in Azure TTS. I want to use phonemes in the Arabic voice (Arabic (Egypt), Shakir (Neural) شاكر).
The allowed phonetic alphabets to be added in "ph" attribute are ipa, sapi, or ups. I used the ipa version of the Arabic letters that are presented in Wikipedia. It seems to be partially supported or there are other preserved symbols (or phonemes) for the Arabic letters.
I tried to search Microsoft documentation for these symbols but I did not reach this table. Is there a place where I can find the IPA table supported by Azure?
Thanks,
Ahmed Ragab
