Hi Vaok
I'm not familiar with that sort of program -- which doesn't mean there aren't any. If you google for "convert text to sound", for example, you do get some results. I have no idea how good (or bad) these programs might be. . |

Hi, Vaok
I'm afraid I can't help you with the software you're looking for, but I think you made a mistake: the word "software" is uncountable, so don't put the indefinite article before it :) (well, I like indulging in nitpicking) |

TTS, Text to sound. The output voice/sound depends on the program you use, or the "voice system" on your computer. Which you can find it in Control Panel > Speech. Windows should have that function too, you can find it in Start > Accessories > Accessibility > Narrator. The instruction should be there.
Hope this helped. |

Hi, HawttDawgg
Actually the program should convert text into phonetic signs, not into sounds, as Vaok explained in his original post. |

Here are the results of a Google search for "text to phonetics software"
I have no idea whether any of it is good or reliable -- or safe to download, for that matter. . |

But he also says, " I mean a software that can chang an English passage into their pronunciation "
Sorry I don't understand what he means... :( |

Hi HG,
Sounds like 'knock some acceptable English pronunciation into them' or 'break an entry gate open for English pronunciation'. _________________ Test of English as a Foreign Language TOEFL Preparation & TOEFL Vocabulary Learn more: How to Become an English Teacher |
