Best For
  • Finding vowels and consonants from an existing lexicon.
  • Preparing a small JSON artifact for the Simple Sound Change Generator.
  • Starting a sound-change workflow without saving a lexicon.
Typical Workflow
  • Upload lexicon data with pronunciations.
  • Choose one lexicon or all lexicons when the file contains multiple languages.
  • Review the detected vowels and consonants.
  • Download phonology JSON or open the Simple Sound Change Generator directly.
Accepted Inputs
  • VulgarLang exports.
  • Compatible Mundifex lexicon JSON.
  • Pronunciation fields.
Outputs
  • Phonology JSON with language title, source counts, vowels, consonants, and sound inventory.
  • URL parameter payload for the Simple Sound Change Generator.
Limits And Access
  • The extractor is deterministic and does not infer missing pronunciations from spellings.
  • Small samples produce sparse inventories and less useful generated rules.
Troubleshooting
  • If no sounds are detected, verify that pronunciation fields are populated.
  • If vowels or consonants look wrong, narrow the extraction to one lexicon instead of all lexicons.
