Compared to eFlite, eSpeak is a multi-lingual synthesizer.
Although the quality of languages is very variable, it is possible to
use it for MANY languages in a way that it is understandable (useful).
The span is even wider than documented, because for example for Czech it
is possible to use it with the Polish voice and understand it. I believe
this is the case for other close languages too. And I'm amazed on how
fast voices for new languages are being added, although of only basic
quality. eFlite is nowhere near this...

If necessary for disk space reasons, I highly recommend dropping Flite
in favor of eSpeak.

Have a nice day,
