Abstract

Speech synthesis system is also called Text-to-Speech System. In the process of speech synthesis, text is the main part to synthesize speech and compared with Chinese, due to the features of Mongolian, lots of problems become difficult to deal with like one script has different sound, short vowels not in the very beginning of a word in written Mongolian and cases attached in the word. In this paper, we mainly aim at solving these problems on the text analyzing process of Mongolian speech synthesis and point out that problems on phonetics, morphology and orthography can be solved depending on our practical needs for a standard Mongolian speech synthesis system.
