Re: Are there any speech synthesisers that support tonal languages?
People with hearing impairment do not hear some of the quirks and pronunciation oddities that people who do not have hearing impairment cannot ignore. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide specific examples to back up my claim.
Experience with phonemes will be very beneficial. I do not believe that you will need to modify too much if you use something like Mandarin as a starting point for your modifications.
Korean is quite hard to learn due to the difficult sentence structures. Both Thai and Turkish are relatively easy to learn for native English speakers and make heavy use of tones, but the tones would not present too many problems for people with hearing impairment.
