A text-to-speech system (10) adapted to operate on text (Tl,...,Tn) in a first language including sections in a second language, includes: a grapheme/phoneme transcriptor (30) for converting said sections in said second language into phonemes of the second language; a mapping module (40; 40b) configured for mapping at least part of said phonemes of the second language onto sets of phonemes of the first language; and a speech-synthesis module (50) adapted to be fed with a resulting stream of phonemes including said sets of phonemes of said first language resulting from mapping and the stream of phonemes of the first language representative of said text, and to generate (50) a speech signal from the resulting stream of phonemes.

L'invention concerne un système de conversion texte-voix (10) conçu pour fonctionner sur un texte (T1,..., Tn) dans un premier langage incluant des sections dans un second langage. Ce système comprend un transcripteur graphème/phonème (30) destiné à convertir les sections dans le second langage en phonèmes du second langage, un module de mise en correspondance (40, 40b) conçu pour mettre une partie au moins des phonèmes du second langage en correspondance avec des ensembles de phonèmes du premier langage, ainsi qu'un module de synthèse vocale (50) destiné à recevoir un flux résultant de phonèmes comprenant les ensembles de phonèmes du premier langage résultant de la mise en correspondance ainsi que le flux de phonèmes du premier langage représentatif dudit texte, et à générer (50) un signal vocal à partir du flux résultant de phonèmes.
