- PeterisP 8y agoIf you want to be able to say arbitrary text, then you pretty much have to go lower than word level, because the number of different words is effectively unbounded. However, if you're speaking a controlled language where there are clear limits to what the system would ever want to say, then there's no problem to record enough high quality words or whole phrases to concatenate them into something nice sounding.
