    Abstract: Generating synthesized speech audio data on behalf of a given user in a conversation. The synthesized speech audio data includes synthesized speech that incorporates textual segment(s). The textual segment(s) can include recognized text that results from processing spoken input, of the given user, using a speech recognition model and/or can include a selection of a rendered suggestion that conveys the textual segment(s). Some implementations dynamically determine one or more prosodic properties for use in speech synthesis of the textual segment, and generate the synthesized speech with the one or more determined prosodic properties. The prosodic properties can be determined based on the textual segment(s) used in speech synthesis, textual segment(s) corresponding to recent spoken input of additional participant(s), attribute(s) of relationship(s) between the given user and additional participant(s) in the conversation, and/or feature(s) of a current location for the conversation.
