Espeak-example:

kripton at mio ~ $ espeak -x "Hello world, this is a test"
  h at l'oU w'3:ld
  DIs I2z a2 t'Est

The last two lines are the "phoneme mnemonics" epseak calculates from 
the sentences before speaking them. Of course you can feed espeak with 
the "phoneme mnemonics" instead of the original sentences and it will do 
  the correct pronaunciation.
