How synthetic speech and text-to-speech works

[kestrell]

Kes: I actually don't listen to my screen reader nearly this fast--my usual speed is only somewhat faster than an average speaker, I would call it highly caffeinated geek speed--and, while I have issues listening to older lesser quality TTS, II don't aspire to the higher quality, human-sounding TTS for most purposes: most of the time, the TTS is rendered kind of invisibl inside my head, equivalent to my internal reading voice.
