Abstract

In a system in which a plurality of previously recorded waveforms corresponding to phonetic elements separately picked up from natural voice and having a pitch length, are connected to form any required speech, the degradation in the quality of the synthesized speech due to the discontinuity in the waveform of the synthesized speech is prevented by so controlling the period of reading out each phonetic element as to change the period stepwise at intervals of several phonetic elements (i.e., pitch lengths).
