Weekend, Week 6

Today, I spent my time understanding exactly how the word is synthesized into speech. It is done with great hassle, since it has to be done nearly manually. The word list is parsed automatically, but the sounds have to be created using a utility. The sentence, from what I can see, is picked individually from the internet, and then synthesized into speech. This is very tedious, and I'm looking into how to make this more automated. Also, some of the sounds (during initial testing) were performed by a regular human voice. Further testing is going to occur this week.
