Discord Tagalog Word Bot Details

Overview

The Discord Tagalog Word Bot is designed to teach and reinforce Tagalog vocabulary. It posts a Word of the Day at midnight, provides interactive commands, and can pronounce words using a TTS system with pitch modulation. This bot combines persistence, scheduling, and real-time interaction for an immersive learning experience.

Core Components

Word Management: Uses JSON files (tagalog_words.json, used_words.json) to track vocabulary.
Scheduler: Midnight loop posts daily words automatically.
Slash Commands: Includes /nextword, /define, /say, and more.
TTS Audio: Generates speech with pyttsx3 and modulates via FFmpeg before playing in Discord voice chat.
Statistics: Tracks progress and calculates estimated learning completion time.
