So it would be nice if we could tag how things sound as well as what  
they're called. GPS devices are starting to try (badly) at speaking  
out the names of things.

Now there are some ways of marking this up already, but they look  
awful and require a degree in linguistics, viz

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

(pronounced /ˌsuːpɚˌkælɪˌfrædʒəlˌɪstɪkˌɛkspiːˌælɪ 
ˈdoʊʃəs/)


One of the badly pronounced streets in San Francisco is Divisadero.  
So, I propose that we do something like

pronounce=deevisadeero

or something similar readable by humans and flying computers that talk.

Thoughts?

Best

Steve
