German pronunciation dictionary for CMU Sphinx

Question

I am looking for a German pronunciation dictionary in order to use for PocketSphinx / CMU Sphinx.

The dictionary looks like this:

BACK    B AE K
CALL    K AO L
NO  N OW
NUMBER  N AH M B ER
ONE W AH N
ONE(2)  HH W AH N
REPLY   R IH P L AY
REPLY(2)    R IY P L AY
SEND    S EH N D
STOP    S T AA P
THREE   TH R IY
TWO T UW
YES Y EH S

It is no problem to find these for English, but I can't find them for German. Do you have any idea where to find it?

For those who are looking for one, I found a lexicon at http://www.repository.voxforge1.org/downloads/de/Archive/

Answer 2

I have tried German model with pocketsphinx.

Сheck the official model files storage.

The list I have used:

• fst = voxforge-de.fst
• hmm folder = model_parameters/voxforge.cd_cont_6000
• dictionary = cmusphinx-voxforge-de.dic
• language model = cmusphinx-voxforge-de.lm.gz

To get hmm path you should unzip: cmusphinx-de-voxforge-5.2.tar.gz

I think that it should be the same for a Sphinx4, so can give a try.
