Abstract
Systems and processes for disambiguating heteronyms in speech synthesis are provided. In one example process, a speech input containing a heteronym can be received from a user. The speech input can be processed using an automatic speech recognition system to determine a phonemic string corresponding to the heteronym as pronounced by the user in the speech input. A correct pronunciation of the heteronym can be determined based on at least one of the phonemic string or using an n-gram language model of the automatic speech recognition system. A dialogue response to the speech input can be generated where the dialogue response can include the heteronym. The dialogue response can be outputted as a speech output. The heteronym in the dialogue response can be pronounced in the speech output according to the correct pronunciation.
