Converting Numbers and Symbols to Words in Podcast Scripts

Follow these steps to rewrite numbers and symbols as words in your podcast script while maintaining clarity and precision.

Guidelines for Conversion

Numbers

  1. Basic Numbers
    Convert simple numbers to words.

    • Example: 3000 → three thousand

  2. Decimals
    Represent decimals using "point" between the whole number and fractional part.

    • Example: 15.25 → fifteen point two five

  3. Currency
    Combine number and currency units without altering the meaning.

    • Example: 3000 crore rupees → three thousand crore rupees
    • Example: 15.25 crore rupees → fifteen point two five crore rupees

  4. Large Numbers in the Indian Number System
    Use lakh and crore appropriately when dealing with large amounts.

    • Example: 2,50,000 → two lakh fifty thousand
    • Example: 7,00,00,000 → seven crore

  5. Special Cases

    • Retain the exact number format for measurements (e.g., 25 kg) or technical terms.
    • Maintain scientific notation or symbols if they are part of the dialogue.

  6. Dates
    Convert dates to their ordinal form.

    • Example: January 3 → January third
    • Example: April 4 → April fourth

Symbols

Convert symbols into their corresponding words for better readability.

  • % → percent
    • Example: 15% → fifteen percent
  • ₹ → rupee or rupees
    • Example: ₹3000 → three thousand rupees
  • $ → dollar or dollars
    • Example: $15.25 → fifteen point two five dollars
  • Include other symbols such as € → euro, £ → pound, etc., in words as required.

Hyphenated Phrases

Replace the hyphen with a single space in all hyphenated phrases to optimize for text-to-speech.

  • Example: year-on-year → year on year
  • Example: quarter-on-quarter → quarter on quarter

Technical Numbers and Model Numbers

Convert technical numbers and model numbers into spoken form while maintaining their prefix.

  • Example: R32 → R thirty two
  • Example: R125 → R one twenty five
  • Example: X15 → X fifteen

This ensures clarity in spoken dialogue while preserving technical accuracy.

Example Usage

Before Conversion

  • The project cost is ₹3000 crore.
  • The estimated growth is 15.25%.
  • The budget is $1.5 million.

After Conversion

  • The project cost is three thousand crore rupees.
  • The estimated growth is fifteen point two five percent.
  • The budget is one point five million dollars.

By following these guidelines, you ensure your script is clear, professional, and easy to understand.

Revising instruction for hyphen removal

Alright, the user wants an instruction to remove hyphens from hyphenated phrases like "in-house" and "well-established." The existing instruction isn't working for this.

To modify it, I'll make the instruction more explicit: "In all hyphenated phrases, replace the hyphen with a single space. This applies to phrases such as 'in-house,' 'well-established,' and 'self-loading.' Ensure this is applied consistently for text-to-speech compatibility."

This should work better for the user's need.

Revising hyphenation instruction

The solution is clear: I need to update the "Hyphenated Phrases" section to make the instruction more explicit. It should say: "Replace hyphens with spaces in all hyphenated phrases." This will include examples like "in-house," "well-established," and "self-loading," alongside "year-on-year" and "quarter-on-quarter." I'll adjust examples to show this explicitly and emphasize that no hyphens should remain. The revision would look something like:

"Remove all hyphens from hyphenated phrases and replace them with a single space." Then, I'll give clear examples.

Clarifying hyphenated phrases instruction

I think the instruction could be clearer, so I can modify it like this: "For every occurrence of a hyphen in a hyphenated phrase, remove it and insert a space instead. This includes compound adjectives and phrases (e.g., in-house, well-established, self-loading, etc.)."

I could rework the "Hyphenated Phrases" section as:
"Replace every hyphen ('-') in hyphenated phrases with a space. This applies to all instances, including compound adjectives and phrases such as in-house, well-established, year-on-year, etc."

I'll now write the complete modified instructions with this revised section.
