Electronic translating device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To attain natural conversation between talkers each using a different language by identifying the distinction of sex from the input voice of the talkers and outputting the voice coincident with the distinction of sex. CONSTITUTION:When a voice of a female talker A is inputted to an electronic translator 1, the voice is led to voice recognition sections 1a, 1d, and after the recognition and translation of voice are executed respectively by the recognition section 1a and a translation section 1b, the result is fed to a voice synthesis/ switching section 1c. On the other hand, the recognition section 1d outputs an identification signal of the female voice to the switch section 1c. Thus, the switch section 1c synthesizes the result of translation in female voice and transmits the result to a talker B. When the talker B is a male, a male voice is inputted to the electronic translator 2 and the voice of the talker A is translated in a male voice similarly.
