Module words 

The word dictionary: what a producer’s sound word means.

An entry says what a word such as “warm” or “plucky” means, how far listeners agree on it and which analyzer number checks it. The entries name no synth control; the per-synth references bind them to controls.

The data lives in dictionary/words/: one file per axis, the listener numbers of agreement.json (written by cargo xtask agreement), the intensity ladder and the style and technique lists. The binary embeds them and parses them once (dictionary).

A word with several senses has one entry per sense and one default. Words::pick takes the sense a named role selects, else the default. Words::question is the one short question that picks a sense.

use sound_to_patch::words::dictionary;

let words = dictionary()?;
let dark = words.pick("dark", None).unwrap();
assert_eq!(dark.agreement.n, 8);

Modules

check

The rules every word entry, listener number and list row must meet.

Structs

Agreement

How far listeners agree on a word’s EQ curve.

Anchor

A sourced number that anchors one step of one kind of control.

AxisFile

One axis file of the dictionary.

Effects

A word’s effect on the five reverb parameters, in global standard deviations from the global mean.

Entry

One sense of a producer word.

EqWord

The listener numbers of one EQ word.

Ladder

The intensity ladder: which step a modifier picks, and the sourced anchors per kind of control.

Listeners

The derived listener numbers of agreement.json.

Measure

The analyzer number that checks a sense.

Modifier

A modifier group of the intensity ladder.

Ranked

A row of the style or technique list.

Reverb

The listener reverb numbers of a word.

ReverbWord

The listener reverb numbers of one word.

Value

A number of an entry with its sources.

Words

The parsed word dictionary.

WordsError

The embedded word data does not parse or breaks a rule.

Enums

Axis

The kind of sound change a word names.

Class

The agreement class of a word. Our thresholds: high from 0.45, medium from 0.20, else low; known only from KNOWN_FROM curves.

Tag

How many sources back a number or a meaning.

Constants

AXES

Every axis file, in reference order.

KNOWN_FROM

The fewest curves for a known class; fewer set the few-sample flag.

Functions

dictionary

The word dictionary, parsed once.
