Abstract: "Speech styles" are defined as sets of prosodic features characteristic for a particular synthesis application. The studied styles (Address, Spelling, Headings, Dates and Prices) are non-continuous: they have no real syntax, no punctuation, they are nominal, and the information is very compressed and often numeric. To generate the utterances, punctuation and pauses are inserted, local FO contours are chosen and FO declination is applied.
