About Catalan text to speech
Catalan text-to-speech has to handle features that set the language apart from neighbouring Spanish, including a richer vowel system with the schwa and the distinction between open and closed e and o, plus extensive vowel reduction in unstressed syllables. A natural-sounding voice must also resolve sandhi phenomena such as the elision and liaison written with the interpunct (l·l) and the apostrophe in forms like l'home or d'aigua. Demand is driven heavily by Catalonia's regional government and public broadcaster, which have long promoted Catalan in digital services, education, and accessibility tools for visually impaired readers. Typical users include public administrations localising services, e-learning platforms, audiobook producers, and media outlets generating voiced content for Catalan-speaking audiences across Spain, Andorra, and France.
