Let’s check out OpenAI’s fantastic Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology. I was blown away when I first heard these voices; they sound so incredibly human, it’s almost hard to believe!
It’s like having a friendly chat in different languages, all thanks to OpenAI’s amazing speech-generation skills in the world’s top ten languages.
I used the following code:
import openai
your_openai_key = 'sk-...'
d = {
'English': 'Finxter helps you stay on the right side of change!',
'Mandarin Chinese (Simplified)': '...',
'Hindi': '...',
'Spanish': '¡Finxter te ayuda a mantenerte del lado correcto del cambio!',
'French': 'Finxter vous aide à rester du bon côté du changement !',
'Arabic': '...',
'Bengali': '...',
'Russian': 'Финкстер помогает вам оставаться на правильной стороне изменений!',
'Portuguese': 'Finxter ajuda você a permanecer no lado certo da mudança!',
'Indonesian': 'Finxter membantu Anda tetap di sisi yang benar dari perubahan!'
}
client = openai.OpenAI(api_key=your_openai_key)
voices = ['alloy', 'echo', 'fable', 'onyx', 'nova', 'shimmer']
for language in d:
response = client.audio.speech.create(
model="tts-1",
voice='onyx',
input=d[language]
)
response.stream_to_file(f'{language}.mp3')
This code snippet uses OpenAI’s Text-to-Speech (TTS) capabilities through the OpenAI Python library. It begins by importing the OpenAI module and setting up an API key. You should have installed OpenAI:

A dictionary d is defined, containing sentences in various languages, each associated with a language key. I used the world’s 10 most spoken languages but for formatting reasons skipped some translations — my blog software cannot display the Unicode symbols.
The code then initializes an OpenAI client with the specified API key. It iterates over the languages in the dictionary d, using the client.audio.speech.create function to convert the text in each language to speech.
The chosen model for TTS is "tts-1" and the voice is set to ‘onyx’ for all languages.
The audio output for each language is then saved as an MP3 file named after the respective language. Here are the language samples — look at how amazing these sound: 👇
