Claim 11:
12. A multilingual neural text-to-speech (TTS) system, comprising:
a speaker encoder, for providing speaker latent space information in the form of a speaker embedding vector associated with a target speaker ID of a target speaker;
a language encoder, for providing language latent space information of a second language in the form of a language embedding vector associated with a target language ID;
an acoustic feature predictor, for generating at least one acoustic feature based on a text input in at least a first language, the speaker latent space information and the language latent space information of the second language; and
a neural vocoder, for generating a speech waveform corresponding to the text input based on the at least one acoustic feature and the speaker latent space information.
