Abstract: A new inventory for Czech text-to-speech synthesis is currently developed. Its core consists of triphone segments, the number of all segments being about 1850. Apart from triphones, the inventory will also contain separate segments for vowel bodies and sentence-initial and sentence-final consonants. A special attention is given to consonants in clusters that are treated with respect to the neighbouring speech sounds. The new system is going to work on 16kHz sampling frequency.
