PURPOSE:To provide the text recitation device which generates a natural sensational speech where tastes of individual device users are reflected. CONSTITUTION:On the basis of rhythm parameters of a calm speech which are generated by the rhythms of an input text, ideal sensational speech rhythm parameters showing a specific feeling are generated from relative value information. An element piece selection part 110 selects and extracts the element pieces of the rhythm parameters which are closest to the feeling speech rhythm parameters from a waveform data base 104 and sends them to an element piece rhythm operation part 105. An element piece rhythm operation part 105 operates the rhythm parameters of the element pieces within a range wherein naturalness is held and puts them close to the feeling speech rhythm parameters to obtain a desired feeling synthesized speech. |
