Made by masterofaudio2077 ## About ### What it is A text to speech model for Egyptian Arabic that learned to follow short vowel marks, called tashkeel. It starts from VoiceTut-TTS, an OmniVoice 0.6B model, and was fine-tuned on 17,546 Egyptian Arabic clips. About half the words in that training text carried vowel marks. You mark the vowels you care about, and the model pronounces them as written. ### Who it suits People who need spoken Egyptian Arabic and want control over how a word is said. That includes app builders, narrators and teachers. The voice setup of the base model is kept, so you can still pick a built-in voice or clone one from a reference clip. | Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Media | Narrators | Turn scripts into spoken Egyptian Arabic | A short story read in a chosen voice | | Education | Arabic teachers | Show how a word sounds with its vowels marked | A lesson that plays the same sentence with and without marks | | Software | App developers | Add spoken Egyptian Arabic to an app | A reading feature in a language-learning app | | Accessibility | Content teams | Read text aloud with the exact pronunciation they want | Names and unusual words spelled with vowel marks | You can skip it if you need a dialect other than Egyptian Arabic, or if you want a hosted voice service with no files to download. ### Where to use it - Your own scripts and apps that run the model files on a computer - Windows, macOS or Linux with Python installed - Any workflow that already uses the base VoiceTut-TTS model | Use case | Who | What they get back | | --- | --- | --- | | Narration | Creators | Spoken audio from Egyptian Arabic text | | Pronunciation control | Teachers | Words read with the vowels you wrote | | Voice choice | App builders | One of 19 built-in voices, or a voice cloned from a reference clip | ### How to set it up - Python, to install the Hugging Face client - About 2.5 GB of disk for the F32 weights, as Hugging Face lists them - The model card, for the steps that run it 1. Install the Hugging Face client. 2. Download the model files to your computer. 3. Open the model card and follow its steps to run the model. ```sh pip install -U huggingface_hub hf download masterofaudio2077/voicetut-egyptian-tashkeel ``` ### How to use it Write your Egyptian Arabic text and add short vowel marks to the words you want pronounced a certain way. Choose one of the 19 built-in voices, or give a reference clip to copy. Text without vowel marks still works as it did before. The visible card text shows no run command, so use the steps in the model card. Clone only voices you have the right to use. | Tool | What it does | | --- | --- | | Vowel marks | Short vowel signs written into the text so each word is read as marked | | Built-in voices | The 19 voices that come with the base model | | Reference clip | A recording of a voice that the model can copy | | Sample audio | Clips on the card that compare the base model with this one | ### Example You write a short Egyptian Arabic sentence with vowel marks on every word and choose the voice Ahmed, which the card uses in its samples. The model speaks the sentence with those vowels. Remove the marks and it reads the plain text as the base model would. ### For newcomers and experts If you are new, try one sentence twice, once with vowel marks and once without, and compare the two recordings. Then try a second voice. If you know the field: the data holds 58.6 hours from 9 speakers, with vowels on about half the words, so the model sees both marked and plain text. The voice prompt was kept in training, which is why built-in voices and cloning still work.
