Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for modifying the prosody of synthesized speech based on an associated speech act. A system configured according to the method embodiment (1) receives text, (2) performs an analysis of the text to determine and assign a speech act label to the text, and (3) converts the text to speech, where the speech prosody is based on the speech act label. The analysis performed compares the text to a corpus of previously tagged utterances to find a close match, determines a confidence score from a correlation of the text and the close match, and, if the confidence score is above a threshold value, retrieving the speech act label of the close match and assigning it to the text.
