Introduction

Today, I am providing a working example of text to speech using .Net framework 4.5 with System.Text namespace. Text to speech is used widely in large scale for different purposes.
I am explaining all steps how to convert Text to Speech using C#, .Net framework.

Step 1. First of all, we have to add reference of System.Speech in our Text Speech application.

Step 2. Now import namespace using System.Speech.Synthesis in our form.

Step 3. Now create object of SpeechSynthesizer

SpeechSynthesizer speech = new SpeechSynthesizer(); 

Step 4. Next one, write this line code speech.SpeakAsync(textBox1.Text) on button click.

speech.SpeakAsync(textBox1.Text); 

Step 5. Run application using F5 button to view Text speech interface.
Step 6. Enter sample text in input box to read through our application.
Step 7. Finally you can see how gracefully reading our text using our C# application.
