Arabic voice for Festival TTS using HTS

linuxscout commented 2 years ago

Salam, We work on arabic voice for Festival TTS using HTS technologies on https://github.com/linuxscout/festival-tts-arabic-voices

I have some questions:

How can add alias names for a unique language, because of multitude country locales: Arabic has multiple codes like ar_DZ, ar_SA, ar_EG, etc, How can I do reference to all this within the same voice.
When I use Orca Screen Reader, my voice appear under "en" language and not under "ar_DZ",
```
speech-dispatcher's festival.log says:
```

Sat Jul 24 19:15:34 2021 [455160]: Voice list reply: |(kal_diphone en US ara_norm_ziad_hts en US lp_diphone it nil pc_diphone it nil)|



On other hand: How can I add this voice to Festival Official release?

 Thanks
