PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a voice synthesizer etc., for facilitating supplement of speech data used for voice synthesis. SOLUTION: A voice segment segment database D1 and a database D3 for voice segment synthesis are stored with voice segment data while the data are made to correspond to readings of voice segments. Furthermore, an elementary piece database D2 is stored with data representing elementary pieces forming a phoneme. When a voice synthesizing unit S inputs document information, a hybrid synthesizing sub-unit S1 and a voice segment synthesizing sub-unit S2 select voice segment data whose readings are common to voices in a document out of voice segment data, and acquires and combines data of phonemes, corresponding to a part for which voice segment data cannot be selected to compose voice data. Then, an automatic addition sub-unit S3 inputs reading of voice segment data to be added to the database D3 for voice segment synthesis, performs rule synthesis to synthesize voice segment data, and additionally registers the voice segment data.
