How to transcribe English into phonetic alphabet using Phonetizer.com
Phonetizer transcribes into IPA. The vocabulary seems somewhat limited (45000 claimed) – English spelling variants do not help, although Phonetizer offers BE as an input option. I have not found a length limit for the transcription with an article from the current Economist of over 1000 words – should be plenty for most reading/recording assignments in the LRC. Easy as (web2)py. 
The web version is advertisement-based. The downloadable version is not free, so we cannot install it in the LRC, unfortunately.

IPA is passé. People don’t see the value in learning this illogical, computer-hostile system from the 1800’s. There are newer, better, easier phonetic alphabets in use. May I suggest the English Phonetic Alphabet (EPA) instead.
Hi Judy, You may, http://www.thompsonlanguagecenter.com/pdfs/english_phonetic_alphabet_article.pdf looks interesting.
Wondering whether there is an online phonetizer for EPA. And whether I should look into X-Sampa and CXS also to simplify the phonetic alphabet for SLA.
