Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Speecher.org

Which French voices does Speecher offer (France, Quebec, Belgium)?
Speecher includes voices for Metropolitan French (France) and Canadian French (Quebec). The exact selection depends on your browser — Microsoft Edge typically offers the widest range, including online Natural voices.
Can it show IPA (API) transcription for French words?
Yes — enable Karaoke mode and you'll see IPA (Alphabet Phonétique International) under every French word as it's spoken. The default "Word + IPA" display covers the whole text at once, so you can read along without clicking word by word.
Does it handle French liaisons, élisions, and silent letters correctly?
Yes — French voices apply native phonological rules including liaisons (les amis → "lez-amis"), élisions (l'arbre), and silent final consonants. Cloud and AWS Polly voices are the most accurate.
Can I download French audio as MP3 for offline practice?
Yes — for Google and AWS Polly voices, click the MP3 button to download. Browser voices play in real time but cannot be exported (a browser API limitation).
