How does Shona Text to Speech work?
- Text Processing. This involves analyzing the written text for pronunciation, intonation, and context to create a more natural voice output.
- Phonetic Conversion. The system converts written text into phonemes (distinct units of sound) that can be articulated by the voice synthesis system.
- Voice Synthesis. This utilizes algorithms to generate vocal sounds based on the processed text, producing synthesized speech that mimics human voice.
- Output Rendering. The final step outputs the synthesized speech through speakers or headphones, allowing users to hear the spoken version of the text.
