It first turns numbers into Oromo words, then speaks the text with a VITS voice. The voice comes from a checkpoint numbered 73000 that ships inside the Space, and the page is built with Gradio and Coqui VITS. ### Who it suits Oromo speakers and learners who want to hear written text and numbers read aloud, and developers who want a small working example of a VITS voice behind a web page. | Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Education | Oromo language learners | Hear how numbers and words are spoken | Type a number with a suffix and listen | | Media | Content makers | Make a quick spoken version of a short text | Paste a short line and play the audio | | Software | Developers | Study how a VITS checkpoint sits behind a Gradio page | Read app.py and config.json in a local copy | If you need a language other than Afaan Oromoo, you can skip it. ### Where to use it The demo runs in these places: - A web browser: open the Space page on Hugging Face and use it there. - Windows, macOS or Linux: run a copy on your own computer with Python. | Use case | Who | What they get back | | --- | --- | --- | | Hear Oromo text read aloud | Learners and speakers | Spoken audio for the text they type | | Spell out numbers in Oromo | Anyone writing figures with suffixes | The number written as Oromo words | | Run it locally | Developers | The same Gradio app on their own computer | ### How to set it up You need a few things first: - Python - The huggingface\_hub package, which the first command installs - The packages listed in requirements.txt The steps download the Space, which includes the checkpoint file, then install Gradio at the version the Space uses, add the other packages and start the app. 1. Install the Hugging Face package. 2. Download the Space into a folder called TTS\_Oromo. 3. Move into that folder. 4. Install Gradio 6.0.0. 5. Install the packages from requirements.txt. 6. Start the app. ```sh pip install -U huggingface_hub hf download eyob7/TTS_Oromo --repo-type space --local-dir TTS_Oromo cd TTS_Oromo pip install gradio==6.0.0 pip install -r requirements.txt python app.py ``` ### How to use it Open the Space page on Hugging Face, or start the local copy with the last command above. Gradio serves a web page where you enter Oromo text or a number with a suffix and listen to the speech. ```sh python app.py ``` | Tool | What it does | | --- | --- | | hf download | Copies the Space's files into a folder on your computer | | python app.py | Starts the demo on your own computer | ### Example You type 400tti, and the text becomes dhibba afurtti, which the voice then speaks. The Space's own list shows 4m turning into meetira afur and 300m into meetira dhibba sadii in the same way. ### For newcomers and experts If you are new to this, open the Space page, type a number such as 4mana and listen. The text side turns it into words before the voice reads it. You do not need to install anything for that. If you know the field, the repository holds a VITS checkpoint, checkpoint\_73000.pth, with its config.json, and the app uses Coqui VITS for synthesis. The number handling is a text step in front of the model, and the examples show suffixes such as mataa and mana kept after the spoken number. You type Oromo text or a number → Numbers are written out as Oromo words → The VITS checkpoint makes the speech → You hear the audio in the Gradio page ### Good to know The card lists a few examples and does not say how long a text can be. - License: mit, as the Space lists it. - Cost to run: none named. The hosted Space runs on Hugging Face hardware of the zero-a10g type. - Data it reaches: the text you type. A local copy also downloads the Space's files from Hugging Face. - Not for: none stated in the card. ## README ````markdown # Oromo VITS TTS Reads Afaan Oromoo text aloud with a VITS voice and writes numbers out as Oromo words first.
