A sound effects affixing device enables sound effects or background music to be affixed in relation to inputted sentences, stored as text data 11, automatically. A keyword extraction device 31 is provided with onomatopoeia extraction means 311, sound source extraction mean 312, and subjective words extraction means 313, which extract keywords from within inputted sentences. A sound retrieval device 32 selects appropriate sound effects or music from a database 2 using these keywords, and the thus selected sound effects or music are outputted by an output unit 43 synchronized with synthesized speech from a speech synthesising unit 42. |
