- lurquer 8y agoCheck out the book "Tahoe Leap Eyeball" at Amazon. It's the entire KJV bible in that style. (Tahoe Leap Eyeball = The Holy Bible). Clearly the process was automated. Ingenious program. More complex than mere homophone substritution... it works syllable by phonetic syllable to string together words that, when spoken, sound pretty dang close to the original.

To tie it back to the OP, you could "spell-correct" the source text into a sequence of words that come closest to reproducing the original sound (but with the source sequence blacklisted).
