Spanish text to speech is one paste away: drop a Spanish text into the box above, pick a voice, and the page reads it aloud as audio you can download as an MP3. It is free, it needs no sign-up, and the box already holds a Spanish sample sentence, so you can press Generate speech and hear Spanish before you change a word.
How to convert Spanish text to speech
- Write or paste your Spanish text into the box. The page opens with a sample line inside: "Escribe o pega tu texto aquí, elige una voz y pulsa generar: en unos segundos tendrás el audio listo para descargar." Replace it with your own words, un texto corto or a full script.
- Open Settings and pick the language. This page starts on Spanish (Spain); choose Spanish (Mexico) instead if that is the Spanish your audience speaks.
- Pick a voice from the chips, or open More voices to hear the full lineup of 28.
- Press Generate speech, listen, and press Download MP3 to save the file.
That is the whole flow. Without an account: 20 uses a day, up to 1,000 characters each.
Spanish (Spain) or Spanish (Mexico)?
The language menu lists Spanish twice: es-ES and es-MX. They are two codes of the same model, not two voice lists, and all 28 voices work with either one. If your text is written for readers in Mexico, switch the setting to Spanish (Mexico) before you generate. Which accent fits is a question for your ears: run one line of your own text under both codes and keep the read you prefer.
How to write Spanish text that sounds natural
- Spell it correctly. The voice reads the spelling it is given, so put accents and ñ where the word needs them: año is not ano, sí is not si, and papá is not papa.
- Mark your questions. Spanish opens a question with ¿ and closes it with ?, as in ¿Cómo funciona? Write the pair in full so the sentence carries its own shape on the page.
- Keep sentences short. One clause per sentence is easy to read aloud; a line that runs three clauses deep is hard for any voice.
- Let punctuation set the pauses. Commas, periods and question marks carry
most of the rhythm, and where you want a longer stop you can drop the
[pause]tag into the text.
More languages than Spanish
When you need a language other than Spanish, the full text to speech tool carries the same 28 voices across 20 languages, with auto-detect to pick the language from the text itself.
