Context →Transparent sound support
Browser voice, not fake local audio
Every entry includes optional device-generated speech without storing MP3 files or calling an external API.
What the button does
It uses the Web Speech API built into compatible browsers and operating systems. The browser prefers an en-IE voice for Irish English entries and a ga-IE voice for Irish-language entries when the device provides one.
What the button does not do
It does not claim to reproduce a locally reviewed Irish English or Irish-language pronunciation. Device voices vary, and many do not model regional accents or Irish phonology accurately.
Why keep it optional
The control can help visitors hear a rough phrase shape while the visible pronunciation guide, spelling variants, and official source links remain available to everyone.
Future reviewed recordings
A genuine recording should be labeled separately with speaker consent, place, dialect or community metadata, and an editorial review record. Browser speech must never be silently presented as that recording.
