Also, the test for 'expansion' (expected 'ɛkspɑ̃sjɔ̃', is 'ɛkspâsjɔ̃') fails.
The mapping ẫ,â
is made because it's longer than â,ɑ
. Is it intentional? Then test_french.py
should be updated.

epitran is a rule based transcriber so for some languages it works better than for others. The older an orthography the more complicated the rules and the worse epitran works. That's also why the English transcription is based on a third party library that uses a grapheme2phoneme (short: g2p) AI model. See here for an example. The French orthography is also old with complicated rules, so the best way to transcribe it is to use something like e-speak-ng (supports even transcription of Belgian and Swiss French!). The disadvantage of g2p models is that you need a considerably large amount of data to train your AI model. Since, however, the vast majority of languages in the world is underdocumented and has a rather young orthography with simple rules, epitran is still extremely useful.
