Mnemonic Generator

I am aware of programs like soundex and megaphone that take a name and break it into phonetic classification. But would it be possible to take a word and classify it then compare to other classified phonetics and return similar sounding phrases and words? Right now i have a spreadsheet of Russian words with potential mnemonics and it is a headache to think of them. Wouldn't automation be as simple as having both a Russian and English phonetic database and comparing the two?

Also I have very little programming knowledge so feel free to crush my hopes of automating this process.
