Extract Vowels

Extracts vowels from larger sounds using information from matching TextGrids.

extractvowels(
  tgpath = NA,
  sndpath = NA,
  outputpath = NA,
  segmenttier = 1,
  wordtier = NA,
  commenttiers = NA,
  omittier = NA,
  stress = c(0, 1, 2),
  wordstoskip = NA,
  write = TRUE,
  encoding = "UTF-8"
)

Arguments

tgpath	a path or vector of paths to textgrid files.
sndpath	a path or vector of paths to wav files.
outputpath	a path to the folder where you want data to go. If NA, nothing is written out. If "working" it will output in a folder called "output" in your working directory.
segmenttier	the name of the tier containing segmental information used for extraction.
wordtier	the name of a tier containing information about words (optional).
commenttiers	a vector containing names of tiers with comments you wish to extract (optional).
omittier	the name of a tier indicating which segments you wish to skip (optional).
stress	a vector contianing labels you may have used to mark stress.
wordstoskip	a vector containing any words you do not want to extract vowels from.
write	if TRUE, 'sounds.RDS' and 'file_information.RDS' are saved to the working directory.
encoding	--.

Value

--.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
tgpath = "tuvesamisol.TextGrid"
tgpath = "WS005-Melissa.TextGrid"

output = extractvowels (tgpath, stress = NA)
output = extractvowels (tgpath, wordtier=NA)
output = extractvowels (tgpath, wordtier=2)
