Allow International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) in Intent Utterances and Slot Values/Synonyms
Since you can use IPA and SSML in Alexa responses, allow IPA in requests for intent utterances and slot values/synonyms.
SSML that uses International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) in response:
<speak>
I am from <phoneme alphabet="ipa" ph="ʃɨˈkɑːɡoʊ">Chicago</phoneme>.
</speak>
Proposed: Allow IPA in request in either intents or slots:
{
"name": "SAMPLE_City",
"values": [
{
"name": {
"value": "/ˈpɪtsbɜːrɡ/"
}
},
{
"name": {
"value": "Chicago",
"synonyms": [
"/ʃɪˈkɑːɡoʊ/"
]
}
},
{
"name": {
"value": "Phoenix",
"synonyms": [
"/ˈfiːnɪks/"
]
}
}
]
}
