Text to speech for English (Ireland) scripts

Prepare an English notice, visitor explanation or course passage for your audience in Ireland. Start with a name or instruction from the real recording. Keep Irish spellings and accents in place, then hear the sentence before choosing a voice. If the main script is Gaeilge, choose an Irish-language collection instead of this English page.

Choose a voice

Patrick O’Connor

Type or paste a short passage, choose a voice, then press Play. Listen before deciding whether to keep it. Anonymous playback has a 1,500-character limit per generation. Saving and downloading come after the account step.

Keep the fada in Irish names, such as Siobhán and Dún Laoghaire, and preview those names in their complete sentences.

Compare the available voices

This collection has 6 voices: 2 male and 4 female. Use a sentence from your actual task to compare them. A collection label is a starting point; it does not guarantee the pronunciation of every local name. There are 3 Emotional-tier voices in this collection. Their presets let you compare delivery; choose after hearing the line in context.

Filter by voice gender and quality. Quality labels are Standard, Premium and Emotional; show only options available in this collection. Choose a voice by its actual sample, rather than by the tier name alone.

Choose the right language page

For another audience, compare these regional collections and adapt the wording as well as the voice. The main English collection remains available through its existing page.

Make local names and practical details clear

Write the English message around the action the listener needs to take. A club notice should explain the meeting arrangement. A shop message should identify where the customer should go. Start the first preview with that detail rather than using only a welcoming phrase.

Irish names require care in an English script. Preserve their normal spelling, including the fada, and test names such as Siobhán or Dún Laoghaire with the words around them. If a reading needs to stay fixed, use the studio pronunciation dictionary on any plan. A familiar location can still be rushed inside a longer direction.

Keep colour, centre and programme consistent with the organisation’s written style. The script, booking details and signs should point to the same room or service. For a date or time that could be misunderstood, write the spoken form rather than relying on a shortened numeric label.

Use local expressions where they belong in the message, without making every sentence perform an accent. A clear instruction often needs no slang at all. Where a recording accompanies an Irish-language version, maintain separate scripts and compare the practical details. One successful English preview does not validate the other version’s translation or pronunciation.

Useful starting points

  • In an evening class introduction, name the room and materials before explaining the subject. Read the instruction without the course sheet to check what a new learner would understand.
  • In a club notice, separate the meeting place from the travel plan. Check a changed date before reusing a previous week’s recording.
  • In a visitor route introduction, test Irish place names early. Describe the next landmark clearly enough that the instruction makes sense without the map.
  • In a shop collection message, tell customers which entrance and proof of order to use. Keep temporary arrangements separate from the normal welcome.

From script to audio

  1. Paste the passage you want to hear. Keep the sentence with the awkward name or abbreviation in your first test.
  2. Pick a voice from this collection. Use this voice returns that choice to the same script tool.
  3. Press Play and listen through. After the result, save and download the MP3 with a free account. Continue in the studio for document or URL import, pronunciation editing and downloads.

What the free account includes

The Free plan includes every voice and unlimited studio previews. A free account can download its output as MP3 within its credit allowance. The allowance is 2,500 credits, given once, not renewed monthly.

Free use is for personal projects and evaluation. Commercial rights require a paid plan. If you are making a client deliverable or an advertisement, check the plan terms before using the recording. Prices on these pages are in USD. A voice preview helps you choose; it does not settle the rights for the finished project.

Before you make your recording

Use the Irish English collection to compare your notice or lesson passage, including its Irish names. Pre-account listening is limited per generation. The choice to save comes after you have heard the result.

Once the spoken arrangements are clear, continue into the studio through a free account for the MP3 file. The credit allowance applies. Keep the date of a temporary notice in view when you decide which result to save.

All voices are available on Free, with unlimited studio previews. Check the line with the Irish name before keeping your recording. The credit allowance still limits generated output.

Use the available gender choices and counts for this collection. Try the meeting notice with each candidate rather than assuming the category identifies a county accent. Listen to names within the full instruction.

A commercial shop message or paid client recording requires commercial rights on a paid plan. Personal use and evaluation are covered by Free. Review the intended use before delivering the file.

Write dates and meeting times so they are clear without the invitation. A shortened numeric date is worth expanding before playback. Terms needing a consistent reading can be set in the studio dictionary on every plan.

No collection name guarantees a particular locality. Compare the samples and your actual message, especially when the voice is meant to match a specific organisation or character. A label cannot replace hearing the delivery, and it does not guarantee the pronunciation of every Irish name in the script.

Keep the recognised spelling and preview the phrase in context. That is different from asking an English voice to read a complete Irish-language script. For the full Irish version, choose the language collection and review it independently. Adjust a specific reading in the studio when needed.

Continue in Listen2It

Listen2It is an AI audio suite: voiceover, dubbing, music, and sound effects, with a multi-track editor. For an existing recording, explore dubbing; its supported languages are a separate list from these voices. You can also explore voice changing, voice cloning, pricing or all languages. Choose the tool for the material you already have: written script or recorded speech.

Hear your own script

Paste the part of the message containing the Irish name or meeting arrangement. Listen as someone arriving for the first time. The return action preserves your work in this same tool.
