Say...

Say...

Enter a sentence, it will be passed through the 'rsynth' text-to-speech translator, or try this sentence.
The sentence can consist of text and/or phonemes; they can be intermixed. Phonemes should be enclosed between square brackets [ and ]. An example of mixed text and phoneme: hello [w3ld]

Both a single-line text input form and a multi-line text input form are available. They offer more functionality, like eg. viewing the phonemes that get generated for a phrase.
Even more functionality is available via an experimental interface that can return both phonemes and speech. It is the result of some experiments with MIME multipart messages.

Background information about rsynth and about this gateway (What? Who? Why? Where? How? - all you ever wanted to know about Say...) is available.

Say... has been nominated in the `Most Technical Merit' category of the Best of the Web '94 Award.
