Introduction

The Text to Speech Extension is an extension that allows projects which use it to output synthesized speech. The service is provided by Amazon Web Services.

Voices

There are five types of voices that can be selected with the set voice to () block:

Name	Description
alto	standard female voice
tenor	standard male voice
squeak	high-pitched female voice
giant	deep male voice
kitten	repeatedly says “meow” but sometimes at a different length

Supported Languages

This extension allows the language of the voice to be changed, but there are not as many languages as the Translate extension.
