added this to cell h1
={"LINK";Arrayformula(If(B2:B="",,hyperlink("www.google.com/search?q="&B2:B&" pronunciation",B2:B)))}

it by no means perfect
on most words - the pronunciation is first search result - however - other not

Hello All,
 
Mchall C good work around/solution. Just to add to that here is a link to Google translate
 
https://translate.google.com/#view=home&op=translate&sl=auto&tl=es&text=word
 
you can use this in your formula. auto is the language detection I would leave this on auto probably, es is the language code to be translated to es=Spanish, don't know if this would matter since were not really trying to translate but just pronunciation and word would be the text within the sheet to be pronounced.
 
Hope this helps,
Stephen

Hi, I don't understand the first parts of your code (”link2”? ”Array formula”?) I want to add pronunciation for English words which are in B column.
