Speak is a talking face. Anything you type will be spoken aloud using a speech synthesizer. You can adjust the accent, rate and pitch of the voice as well as the shape of the eyes and mouth. This is a great way to experiment with a speech synthesizer, learn to type or just have fun making a funny face.
