摘要
This paper deals with basic principles for projecting and building of speech synthesizer for Macedonian language, based on concatenation of speech segments. The structure of general speech synthesis system is described and there are details about the specific features of Macedonian language important for the speech synthesis, like sound and vowel system and prosodic elements. Because concatenative speech synthesizers are based on a collection of speech segments, the creation of the speech corpus for Macedonian language is described.
