What is it?

php-lle is a proof of concept for crowd-sourcing the pronunciation of Welsh place names.

Learning and naming the places and features of the land in Wales can give us a greater connection with it. What if we could capture the names and nicknames of places big and small from the people who know them best?

What does it do?

Here are some features of a minimum viable product:

  • As a "pronouncer" I want to be able to search for an address so that I can choose a place from a list of possible matches.
  • As a "pronouncer" I want to be able to record a small audio clip of me saying a place name so that I can let other people know how to pronounce the name.
  • As a "visitor" I want to be able to search for an address in the database and hear the audio clip so that I know how the name is pronounced.

Features

Unless we're going to provide people with logins, we'll need some good spam protection so that the application isn't filled with rubbish data. Google reCaptcha v3 might do this for us in a way which is as unobtrusive as possible.

As far as possible we should have a bi-lingual user interface so that the application can be used in English and Welsh.
