Hey there!

I created a guide for adding a new language here.

All currently supported languages are stated in the README.

Comment here if you would like to work on adding a new language. Looking for people who speak the language they want to add, just so the words are accurate!

Make sure that the voice is supported here.

Please wait for a confirmation before starting on it! ✨

Hey @saurav-jaat! Since the words are usually translated from one language to English right now, we can't support English as of the moment, sorry. Do you have any other language in mind?

Alternatively, you can check out issue #13 which is an easy way to help out for first time contributors!

No I don't speak Russian but I could help by translating each word into Russian using google translate if you are fine with it.

@jayehernandez Sadly I can't contribute another language but I did write a script that auto-fills the Google sheet's 'word' column using the Google Translate formula you provided. It would cut down on time needed as someone could fill in all the words from Google Translate and then review the words from there. Before I submit a pull request however I wanted to check with you to see if such a tool is in line with your goals for this project.

Hey @WyldWanderer yes this is great! Please go ahead with opening up the PR. We can also talk about the needed documentation changes when we go with that route.

I would like to work on Urdu language it is my native. But it has no supported voice. Is it possible to use hindi or arabic voice for it due to similarity ?

@jayehernandez

Owner Author

@shehriyarnadeem, sorry since it doesn't have a supported voice, we will not be able to add it for now. Using a similar voice may cause inaccuracy if people who want to learn the language use it.

Hi @sharvarii11, the Hindi language translation is already done, as you can see in the readme's supported languages list.
