Text-to-speech
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This isn't a limitation of Kaldi; text-to-speech is not a project goal

The Jasper project contains `a number of Python interface classes
<https://github.com/jasperproject/jasper-client/blob/master/client/tts.py>`_
to popular open source text-to-speech software such as *eSpeak*,
*Festival* and *CMU Flite*.
