But perfecting Arabic text to speech wasn’t an easy task!

If you’ve had pronunciation problems with Arabic TTS, you’re not alone. Luckily, ReadSpeaker’s latest Arabic voices represent the cutting edge of AI voice technology—and their pronunciation accuracy is unprecedented.

Solving the Pronunciation Challenge in Arabic Text to Speech

Text-to-speech software has historically struggled with Arabic pronunciation.

That’s because Arabic script usually doesn’t indicate how long you should hold a consonant. It also rarely includes short vowels (like the a in cat). (See boxed text below for the exception.)

Native Arabic speakers recognize words by context, and add the unrepresented sounds themselves. That’s easy for humans, but very difficult for computers.

ReadSpeaker’s team of speech scientists and AI engineers developed a solution. Our proprietary deep neural networks were trained on native Arabic speech, so they learned how to predict accurate pronunciation a much higher percentage of the time.

And if you do run into errors with your TTS? We provide ongoing pronunciation support, including a custom pronunciation dictionary you can add to as you go.
