- gus_massa 1y agoAt 40% (closer to Grump than Isabelle) it reads Spanish quite well. I'm not sure it's intentional.
- greeniskool 1y agoJapanese and Spanish happen to have very similar pronounciation. It's a neat detail in the Animal Crossing games that seems to have gotten mostly lost in translation for the English version.

- brettermeier 1y agoWhat and why is this?
- dole 1y agoIn Animal Crossing, the characters' audible speech seems like it's speaking the first syllable or two of each word in the text dialog and sped up, and the pitch control varies between characters, so while it generates amusing gibberish, some of it is lightly comprehensible and interesting and OP's link is a pretty good replica of it.
- greeniskool 1y agoFrom the Github README: animalese.js is a JavaScript library that synthesizes an approximation of the villager speech sounds from Animal Crossing.
- speps 1y agoFrom a quick glance, it's a very simply a premade wav file which has all letters A to Z with 0.15s for each. The final wav is just a concatenation of all of letters from the text, and a silence of each unknown character/space. It doesn't support numbers but could easily be extended beyond what's in the demo. Very clever.
