Abstract in different language: In recent years, the concept of end-to-end text-to-speech synthesis has begun to attract the attention of researchers. The motivation is simple – replacing the individual modules that TTS traditionally built on with a powerful deep neural network simplifies the architecture of the entire system. However, how capable are such end-to-end systems of dealing with classic tasks such as G2P, text normalisation, homograph disambiguation and other issues inseparably linked to text-to-speech systems? In the present paper, we explore three free implementations of the Tacotron 2-based speech synthesizers, focusing on their abilities to transform the input text into correct pronunciation, not only in terms of G2P conversion but also in han- dling issues related to text analysis and the prosody patterns used.
