Computer-based literacy tools provide users with visual and aural examples of phonemes, associating graphemes with both a respective sound and organ or organs of articulation. The tools can compare a spoken syllable, word, or phrase to the correct phoneme(s) and express any dissonance between the two using iconophonological symbols. Works published in one dialect can be transliterated into another dialect, such as in response to a location or user preference. Iconophonological orthographies can be logically ordered, and can be used to simplify animation.
