SPEECH LEARNING/SYNTHESIS SYSTEM AND SPEECH LEARNING/SYNTHESIS METHOD

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an easy-to-use speech learning/synthesis system and method that can reduce facility costs and the burden of the costs on a user, and execute speech learning processing even during use of a portable terminal. SOLUTION: The speech learning/synthesis system includes a user terminal 100 to which speech data and a text are input, and a server 200 connected to the user terminal 100 through a network. The user terminal 100 includes a feature quantity analyzer 110 which analyzes/extracts a feature quantity from speech data, and a waveform generator 140 which generates a synthesized speech from intermediate information, and the server 200 includes a DB generator 210 which generates a sound source DB using feature quantities, and an intermediate information generator 220 which generates the intermediate information from the text. The feature quantity and text are transmitted from the user terminal 100 to the server 200, and the intermediate information is transmitted from the server 200 to the user terminal 100.
