How to get pronounce of the word in Google translate api?

In google translate website, if we translate it shows translation and also pronounce of the word.

enter image description here

But when I use the Google translate rest API, it only return the translation, I need pronounce of the word same as website.

enter image description here

My Rest API

https://translation.googleapis.com/language/translate/v2?key=myApiKey&q=%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86&source=ar&target=en

I may miss something, is any extra parameters there to retrieve these extra information?

gitHub Source for given gTTS module:

1. Install Required Libraries

pip install gTTS

2. Code Example:

from gtts import gTTS
import os

# Text to translate and generate sound for
text_to_translate = "Hello, how are you?"

# Specify the language
language = 'en'  # English

# Create a gTTS object
tts = gTTS(text=text_to_translate, lang=language, slow=False)

# Save the sound file
tts.save("pronunciation.mp3")

# Play the sound
os.system("pronunciation.mp3")  # This is for Windows, for other systems, use appropriate commands

This way you can store text to audio and then use 'os' module to play the given audio file.

I was also looking for the same answer. I haven't found a way to get Pronuntiation with the Google Translate API yet. However, I found a way to get it through the Python library. You can use the Python googletrans library. The code is as follows.

You must use googletrans library 3.1.0a0 to avoid errors.

# pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0

from googletrans import Translator

translator = Translator()

SENTENSE = "안녕하세요. 반갑습니다."
LANGUAGE_CODE = translator.detect(SENTENSE).lang

k = translator.translate(SENTENSE, dest=LANGUAGE_CODE)
print(k)
print(k.text)
print(k.pronunciation)


Output:
Translated(src=ko, dest=ko, text=안녕하세요. 반갑습니다., pronunciation=annyeonghaseyo. bangabseubnida., extra_data="{'translat...")
안녕하세요. 반갑습니다.
annyeonghaseyo. bangabseubnida.

Translating a word from the alphabet of one language to another(get the pronuntiation), is named transliteration and it is not supported by Cloud Translate API yet.

However, there is a feature request filed for the same. You can vote for this feature by clicking "+1" and "STAR" mark to recieve updates on it.
