Adding New Dictionaries

Here are the steps to add a new dictionary (assuming you have a dictionary (txt) to add):

• Place your dictionary.txt in the original-data directory and rename it to match the following format: LANGCODE_dictionary.txt.

• Add a new command to package.json. Again, keep consistency so it looks like all the other commands. This is how it would look:

  {
    // This line references the file you're going to make in two steps.
    "name": "LANGUAGE-to-ipa",
    "title": "Translate LANGUAGE to IPA",
    "description": "Convert LANGUAGE to international phonetic alphabet.",
    "mode": "view"
  }
  

• Add your language to the Languages enum in src/types.ts.

• Create a tsx file with the name set in package.json. Ideally copy one of the other languages' file and modify the language prop sent to the <CustomForm> component.

• Add a case with your language in the language switch statement in src/form.tsx.

• Add your new language to the top of this file amongst all the other languages.

• Test that the command exists and works!
