Description-en: English text speech synthesizer
Recite is a program to do speech synthesis. The quality of sound
produced is not terribly good, but it should be adequate for reporting
the occasional error message verbally.
.
Given some English text, recite will convert it to a series of phonemes,
then convert the phonemes to a sequence of vocal tract parameters, and
then synthesise the sound a vocal tract would make to say the sentence.
Recite can perform a subset of these operations, so it can be used to
convert text into phonemes, or to produce an utterance based on vocal
tract parameters computed by another program.
