To this end, considerable effort was be spent on quality aspects of this activity. Apart from identifying the phonetic alphabet of the language, recording relevant word sentences in the database and building a text analysis component, the project also produced a synthesizing engine that facilitates natural sounding Sinhala voice. This application is available for <a href="http://www.ucsc.cmb.ac.lk/ltrl/projects/si/" target="_blank">download</a>.                  The basic methodology adopted is based on the diphone concatenation approach to TTS and included following components and procedures in developing them. <ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Text analysis component:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Studying types of non-textual content and how to convert them to text</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Defining the text analysis interface</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Building  the text analysis component</li> </ol>   </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Phonetic component:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Studying the phonology and phonetics of Sinhala</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Identifying the phonetic vocabulary</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Constructing word sentences for recording most common diphones</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Defining phonetic processor components</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Building the diphone database</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Building the phonetic processor</li> </ol>   </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Integrating all components and producing the TTS system.</li> </ol>                  <a href="http://www.ucsc.cmb.ac.lk/ltrl/images/panl10n_p1_tts_full.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.ucsc.cmb.ac.lk/ltrl/images/panl10n_p1_tts_sample.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></blockquote>
