PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to completely analyze deep language information for pitch pattern generation and perform precise synthesis without using a complicated synthesis rule. SOLUTION: A text analysis part is provided with a function 70 which divides an inputted text into phrases 76, 78, and 80 and an accent phrase and finds phrase type information 100, etc., showing sequences of accents in the phrases and accent phrase type information 110, etc., showing the constitution contents of the accent phrase. A pitch pattern generation part is provided with a function 72 consisting of a phrase outline pattern retrieval processing part 120 which selects a phrase outline pattern 124 out of a data base 122 according to the phrase type information 100, etc., and outputs it, an accent phrase outline pattern retrieval processing part 126 which selects an accent phrase outline pattern 130 out of a data base 128 according to the accent phrase type information 110, etc., and outputs it, and a pattern adaption processing part 132 which adapts the said two kind of outline patterns 124 and 130 and outputs a text pitch pattern 134. |
