heal.abstract	This work gives a general presentation and classification of the various rules for text-to-phoneme transcription in Modern Greek. It is the outcome of a detailed study of Modern Greek based on more than 5000 words taken from everyday texts. We believe that this study is reasonably exhaustive, and that the rules formulated can accomodate not only texts from the Computer Science environment, but also specialized data bases referring to various subjects such as medicine, engineering etc. As this work is related to speech synthesis, the presentation has more of an engineering than a linguistic flavour. This means that the reader should not expect a strict linguistic rigour. The various rules found have led to the formulation of a computer program labelled PHONEMIA, which is the first module of a complete text-to-speech transcription project. This program has also been used in dealing with the diphones encountered in Greek. © 1987.	en
