VOZ ME

Web molt interessant per a tots aquells que s’inicien en el coneixement d’un idioma donat que reprodueix els sons de les paraules que hem introduït amb el teclat. Entre d’altres idiomes, podem treballar amb anglès, espanyol i català. També es pot triar entre veu masculina o femenina.
 

Un cop escrit el text que volem escoltar, cliquem a sobre del botó “generar mp3”. L’arxiu creat es pot descarregar o escoltar directament des del lloc. També permet, en el cas que s’utilitzi el Mozilla Firefox, incorporar a la barra de navegació un botó de síntesi de veu que permet sentir qualsevol text que es seleccioni mentre es navega.
