does anybody have a list on the languages which Speech Synthesis API supports? Or a snippet of code I could run to find the different languages? Thanks!
The list of supported voices is different for each browser/OS combination.
I wrote a jsbin showing the voices of the browser/OS on which it's run:
https://jsbin.com/ginanegoqu/edit?js,output
if ('speechSynthesis' in window) {
// Start an html table for languages details
var text = '<table border=1><tr><th>Default<th>Language<th>Local<th>Name<th>URI</tr>';
// Get voices; add to table markup
function loadVoices() {
var voices = speechSynthesis.getVoices();
voices.forEach(function(voice, i) {
// Add all details to table
text += '<tr><td>' + voice.default + '<td>'
+ voice.lang + '<td>' + voice.localService
+ '<td>' + voice.name + '<td>' + voice.voiceURI;
});
}
loadVoices();
langList.innerHTML = text;
// Chrome loads voices asynchronously.
window.speechSynthesis.onvoiceschanged = function(e) {
loadVoices();
langList.innerHTML = text;
}
}
