Abstract: Methods, Systems, and Products are disclosed for synthesizing speech. Text is received for translation to speech. The text is correlated to phrases, and each phrase is converted into a corresponding string of phonemes. A phoneme identifier is retrieved that uniquely represents each phoneme in the string of phonemes. Each phoneme identifier is concatenated to produce a sequence of phoneme identifiers with each phoneme identifier separated by a comma. Each sequence of phoneme identifiers is concatenated and separated by a semi-colon.

Abstract: A method and system of customizing voice translation of a text to speech includes digitally recording speech samples of a known speaker, correlating each of the speech samples with a standardized audio representation, and organizing the recorded speech samples and correlated audio representations into a collection. The collection of speech samples correlated with audio representations is saved as a single voice file and stored in a device capable of translating the text to speech. The voice file is applied to a translation of text to speech so that the translated speech is customized according to the applied voice file.
