Its repository keeps separate folders for several varieties and scripts, named kab, shi, taq, rif-script\_arabic, rif-script\_latin and ttq-script\_tifinagh. The README is only the Hugging Face configuration pointer, so the controls are not described there. ### Who it suits It suits learners and speakers of Amazigh languages who want to hear written text read aloud. It also suits researchers and developers working on speech tools for these languages. | Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Education | Language learners | Hear written Tamazight spoken | Type a short phrase and play it | | Research | Language-technology researchers | Compare voices for different varieties | Try the same text in two scripts | | Culture | Community groups | Prepare spoken material for a language project | Generate audio for a short text | | Software | Developers | Study a multi-variety TTS app | Read app.py and the model folders | Anyone who needs a language outside the folders listed can skip it, since the source names no others. ### Where to use it The demo runs in two places. - A web browser, on the page of the Space at Hugging Face - Windows, macOS or Linux, as a local copy run with Python | Use case | Who | What they get back | | --- | --- | --- | | Read-aloud | Learners | Spoken audio from typed Tamazight text | | Variety testing | Researchers | Speech from the voice folders for each variety | | Code study | Developers | A repository with the app and one folder per variety or script | ### How to set it up The online page needs nothing installed. A local copy needs the following. - Python and pip - Windows, macOS or Linux - The packages listed in requirements.txt - The system packages listed in packages.txt, which the Space installs with apt-get 1. Install Python. 2. Install the Hugging Face hub package and download a copy of the Space. 3. Move into the new folder and install Gradio 3.32.0 and the packages in requirements.txt. 4. Start the app with python app.py. ```sh pip install -U huggingface_hub hf download ayymen/Amazigh-tts --repo-type space --local-dir Amazigh-tts cd Amazigh-tts pip install gradio==3.32.0 pip install -r requirements.txt python app.py ``` ### How to use it Open the page, type the text you want spoken, choose the variety or voice if the page offers one, and play the audio. The source does not describe the controls. On a local copy, this command starts the page. ```sh python app.py ``` | Tool | What it does | | --- | --- | | app.py | Holds the Gradio page | | Variety folders | Hold the voice files for kab, shi, taq and the Rif and Tifinagh variants | | requirements.txt | Lists the Python packages the app needs | | packages.txt | Lists the system packages installed with apt-get | ### Example You type a short Tamazight sentence into the text box and run it. The page returns an audio clip of that sentence spoken by one of the voices, which you can replay. ### For newcomers and experts If you are new to this, start with a short phrase and listen to the result. Then try the same phrase with another voice if the page lets you pick one. If you know the field, the repository is organized by variety and script, with separate folders for Kabyle-style, Shilha-style, Tamasheq-style, Rif and Tifinagh material by name. The page documents no model architecture, so read app.py and the folders to see how a voice is loaded. Type Tamazight text → The page selects a voice → The TTS model speaks it → Audio plays in the page ### Good to know The README holds no description, so details are best read from the code. The Space runs on basic CPU hardware. - License: CC BY 4.0 - Cost to run: none named - Data it reaches: the text you type, and the voice files in the repository - Hardware: basic CPU at Hugging Face ## README ````markdown # Tamazight Text-to-Speech Reads Tamazight text aloud with text-to-speech models, with separate folders for several varieties and scripts.
