Abstract
According to an embodiment, a voice synthesizer includes a content selection unit, a content generation unit, and a content registration unit. The content selection unit determines selected content among a plurality of pieces of content registered in a content storage unit. The content includes tagged text in which tag information for controlling voice synthesis is added to text serving as a target of the voice synthesis. The content generation unit applies the tag information in the tagged text included in the selected content to designated text to generate new content. The content registration unit registers the generated new content in the content storage unit.
