Essentially, it is a big list of rules, along with an even bigger list of exceptions, by word. I remember that I played a lot with it attempting to create a somewhat better version of Geman translator rules - without really succeeding.
Unfortunately, a lot of the melody of speech are built into the narrator.device, and thus not accessible on the level of the translator. This is why every language sounds as if an american attempts to speak a foreign language (or, shortly, "not convincing").

Oh, thanks for that - it's a good start. Just need to figure out the actual speech synth now. I understand that translator.library basically converts english words to phonemes, hopefully I can figure out how to generate them as waves
