| Abstract: | Polyglot text-to-speech synthesis, i.e. the synthesis of sentences containing one or more inclusions from other languages, primarily depends on an accurate morpho-syntactic analyzer for such mixed-lingual texts. From the output of this analyzer, a mixed-lingual phonological component can derive a correct pronunciation by application of language-specific phonological transformation rules that are restricted by syntactic, graphemic and phonological context constraints. In this paper it is shown how such a phonological component can be constructed using a set of monolingual and mixed-lingual phonological transformation rules. |
