The invention relates to an arrangement for improved speech comprehension in artificial translation of one language to a second language. The arrangement comprises an analysis unit which carries out an analysis of duration and fundamental tone of the speech in the first language. A prosody-interpreting unit determines, on the basis of the analysis and language-characteristic information, prosody-dependent information in the first speech which is used by a prosody-generating unit for the second language for controlling the speech synthesis. A speech synthesis element thus produces stresses in the speech translated in the second language which, from a language point of view, correspond to stresses in the first language. <IMAGE> |
