<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a synthesis dictionary creation device which enhances the creation efficiency of a speech synthesis dictionary. <P>SOLUTION: The synthesis dictionary creation device includes presenting means, recording means, necessity determination means, dictionary creation means, and speech synthesis means. The presenting means presents first sentences selected in order from N sentences (N is a natural number equal to or larger than 2) stored in sentence storage means, to a user. The recording means records voice of the user reading out the first sentences and stores recorded waveforms in association with the first sentences. The necessity determination means determines whether it is necessary to create a speech synthesis dictionary or not in a state where recorded waveforms of M first sentences (M is a natural number equal to or larger than 1 and smaller than N) have been recorded by the recording means. If it is determined that creation of a speech synthesis dictionary is necessary, the dictionary creation means creates a speech synthesis dictionary. The speech synthesis means uses the speech synthesis dictionary created by the dictionary creation means to convert a second sentence to a synthesized waveform. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
