>Thanks, Christopher. Was assuming care would need to be taken along those and >similar lines. Yep. It also can be tripped up by words that have different hyphenations depending on context, like proj-ect vs pro-ject. Still, it seems to do a good job most of the time, including on those difficult short words that are omitted from regular hyphenation dictionaries. I tried out several tricky words and didn't find a single one where I disagreed -- which is quite a feat, considering my persnicketiness about phonetic hyphenation. mdl ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Thanks, Christopher. Was assuming care would need to be taken along those and similar lines.

Re: [Finale] Fwd: : Lyric Hyphenator
I've been using it for a long time. Check carefully, though, because it doesn't give you common slang hyphenations like "gon-na", and because it has a liturgical user base, it returns "bless-ed" instead of "blessed" and "pleas-ed" instead of "pleased."

[Finale] Fwd: : Lyric Hyphenator
Hello, This is my first post. I simply want to share a very useful tool that I found on a website. It is a Lyric Hyphenator (english only). I've been using it for about a year. It works great and it's free! You simply copy and paste lyrics into the text box, and it automatically hyphenates them for you. You then copy and paste them back into your lyric window on Finale, use click assignment and voila! Very painless. http://juiciobrennan.com/hyphenator/ Cheers, Greg Here's what's written on the website: The Lyric Hyphenator is a free online linguistics program that automatically hyphenates English words into syllables. It is great for use with music notation software like Finale. The resulting text can simply be pasted into the program and automatically lined up with the musical score. It is also a great tool for English teachers and students. Simply paste your text into the field below: Current limitations include: Only hyphenates words found in standard English dictionaries. Does not hyphenate some proper nouns. Always double-check your results before using them. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
