Abstract

This paper describes a new Chinese speech synthesis method apply in Chinese poetry teaching and learning, which focus on the prosody of syllables and words in Chinese poetry. As the word is a key semantic unit for Chinese poetry, we concentrate on Chinese word prosody and propose a speech synthesis method, which consider the appearance with the essence of human voice, use the homomorphism analysis over the time domain analysis to make the synthesized speech between syllables in a Chinese word sounds more natural. The prosody model of the method, however comply with the reading rules of Chinese poetry, make the user to learn Chinese poetry more convenient from the acoustic perception level.
