Remarks

A compiled sound only stores the flat runtime phoneme stream, so the original word grouping, plaintext and emphasis samples cannot be recovered. All phonemes are emitted into a single WORD block, which the compiler flattens back to the same stream. A phoneme code is the unicode code point of its IPA symbol; the compiler keys off the numeric code, so the symbol is written purely for readability.
