phonemize/dist/zh/expand.d.ts

Fast phonemizer with rule-based G2P prediction. Pure JavaScript implementation.

/**
 * Chinese text normalization for preProcess: converts Arabic digits and
 * common typographic forms into their spoken Chinese characters so the
 * downstream G2P (pinyin-pro) can read them.
 *
 * Outputs Han characters; works regardless of the surrounding text's
 * dialect, since pinyin-pro covers Mandarin readings.
