1. A system for performing a grapheme-to-phoneme conversion procedure, comprising:
- a graphone model generator that performs a graphone model training procedure to produce an N-gram graphone model based upon dictionary entries in a dictionary; and
a grapheme-to-phoneme decoder that references said N-gram graphone model to perform said grapheme-to-phoneme decoding procedure to convert input text into output phonemes.

Abstract
A system and method for performing a grapheme-to-phoneme conversion procedure includes a graphone model generator that performs a graphone model training procedure to produce an N-gram graphone model based upon dictionary entries in a training dictionary. A grapheme-to-phoneme decoder then references the N-gram graphone model to perform grapheme-to-phoneme decoding procedures to convert input text into corresponding output phonemes.
