Nice. I wonder what methods and tools did you use for defining pronouncability. Care to share some tips? Just curious about language-oriented programming.
As with many linguistic algorithms this approach is not language-agnostic though. If you wanted to predict the pronounceability for a language other than English you'd need different algorithms and patterns.
A much more sophisticated approach (as opposed to the heuristic one above) would involve training a Markov model (with characters as states). More probable words (i.e. those containing a likely sequence of characters) are more likely to be easily pronounceable.

etc. I like the idea though.
but really the domain name I want is one that is SPELLABLE, not pronounceable
100% pronounceable.
