Abstract :
This work deals with simulation of prosody contours in any Speech Synthesizer. Signal generator is able to generate melody contour on demand. Sentence as an input of Speech Synthesizer is described with many parameters. On this level is worked with phones and their own values (frequencies). These values will be simulated into one continuous melody time progress. The results can be processed in picture form (graph) or sound form.
