Do you have a long book or article that you’ve been wanting to read but just can’t find the time to sit down and read it? Or maybe you have some important work documents you need to review but can’t take your eyes off the computer screen for too long?
Well, you’re in luck! In this day and age, there’s a technology solution for almost everything. And in this case, it’s converting text to audio.
How to Convert Text to Audio
There are many free and paid text-to-audio services available online. Some of the most popular ones include:
- NaturalReader: A software that converts any written text into spoken words. It offers multiple voices and languages to choose from.
- Read Aloud: A Google Chrome extension that reads the text on the webpage aloud. It also allows you to control the speed and voice.
- iSpeech: A text-to-speech service that can be used to convert any written text into spoken words. You can choose from different languages and voices.
Once you’ve chosen a text-to-audio service, simply copy and paste the text you want to listen to into the service. You can then select the voice and speed you prefer and hit play. Voila! You now have an audio version of your text.
Benefits of Using Text to Audio
Aside from being able to work or do other tasks while “reading” your materials hands-free, there are other benefits to using text-to-audio services. These include:
- Better comprehension: Listening to something being read aloud can help you better understand and retain the information.
- Improved pronunciation and vocabulary: Hearing words being spoken correctly can improve your own pronunciation, and listening to new words can expand your vocabulary.
- Reduced eye strain: Giving your eyes a break from reading can help reduce eye strain and ocular fatigue.
