Can Android MediaPlayer play audio in a zipped file?

You can use a combination of ZipFile or ZipInputStream and java.io file operations to read the necessary data from the zip, create temp files and play those using MediaPlayer .

An alternative you should consider is to download the individual sound files when the user want to listen to a pronunciation. This should reduce the file size although it does mean that you can't listen to a pronunciation when there is no Internet.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
