HI Samuel,
>I'd like to know if there is a prompt specification somewhere ?
Nothing formal...
>Is the number of words limited ?
Yes, please only have 15-25 words per line.
>Is the phonem number in the sentence limited ?
You can have as many phonemes per sentence as you want.
However, if you are creating prompts for others to read too, then having sentences that make sense (as opposed to random words) is better... as a result, this may reduce the variety of phonemes you might have in a sentence.
Are you interested in contributing some French translations for the Speech Submission applet?
Ken
You can either download a pot file to edit it with a text-editor or a gui-based application
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17293806/en.pot
and send the content back
or translate this (only the strings between double quotes (I think this way is preffered now.) Please keep the slashes before quotes in the strings.

Hi Samuel,
thanks for the translations!
>please post the text linked to the about button
I just highlighted the about page and used ctrl-c to copy, and then ctrl-p to paste here (right-clicking to copy in the Java applet does not seem to work...)
