Comment on Show HN: Rappad - Write better lyrics

Comments

"Write lyrics better" would be a better tagline than "write better lyrics", which could be taken as an insult.

I disagree. "Write better lyrics" cuts right to the emotional need. I want to write better lyrics. "Write lyrics better," without further context, could refer to penmanship. It's a less impactful phrasing.

"Write better lyrics" implies your lyrics are in need of improvement. I'll let you be the one to tell your favorite artist that they can write better lyrics with RapPad.

I think your right! I will change it!

What are you using for syllable counting?

A simple regex! That's why it's not perfect :(

check out the cmu pronouncing dictionary [http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/cmudict] - it does both syllables and stresses.

Use an NLP library.
