Put today the best Festival speech synthesis program developed at the Center for the Study of Speech Technologies at the University of Edinburgh (Scotland). It supports many different languages and voices, can read text from a file or from the command line and record the result of the synthesis in a wav sound file, includes A pidgin plugin that speaks incoming messages ":
$sudo apt-get install festvox-ru And now my crunch has become fluent in Russian:
$ echo "Привет" | festival --language russian --tts And you can listen to the book in text format:
$ festival --language russian --tts path/to/file.txt I have a question for those who are not familiar with this program for the first day, can I get to read it pdf? (If so, how?)
