Show HN: Heardle Is a Phonemic Wordle

3 pointsby JoshMandelover 3 years ago
Snowy weekend project with my partner who studies speech production.<p>Five-phoneme words can be long or short orthographically, which keeps the gameplay interesting. We designed this to be playable for folks (like me) who don&#x27;t know IPA, but this is also a great excuse to ping the linguist in your life.<p>Powering the interface is CMUdict, a great and openly licensed source of pronunciations (though it doesn&#x27;t include all inflected forms, which leads to some gaps in the allowed word list).

I like it. But something is up with the dictionary. It said that “blank” and “blink” weren’t in the dictionary.
