About Japanese Text to Speech
Japanese is spoken by 125 million people and uses three writing systems — kanji, hiragana, and katakana — often mixed within a single sentence. Its pitch-accent system and multiple politeness levels (keigo) make accurate TTS particularly nuanced. Japanese TTS powers content for one of the world’s largest digital economies, from anime and gaming to corporate communications.
