    Abstract: An information processing device includes a controller. In response to detection of an operation on an operator, the controller causes sound emission of a syllable to start based on a parameter for a syllable start frame. In a case where the operation continues even after start of sound emission of a vowel based on a parameter for a vowel frame in a vowel section included in the syllable, the controller causes the sound emission of the vowel based on the parameter for the vowel frame to continue until the operation is released.
