# Italian text to speech for creators and teams

Turn your Italian script into spoken audio with Exemplary AI. Choose a voice from the library, write or paste your text, and add short delivery notes to guide the mood of each line.

## Listen to Italian voice samples

Hear how different voices handle Italian text across the samples on this page. The Calm narrator and the Clear explainer show plain narration guided by a short delivery note that shapes the mood and manner of the line without being read aloud.

The Lively storyteller demonstrates how a voice performs an expression such as a sigh placed directly in the script, alongside a delivery note. If your project involves dialogue, the Two voices in conversation sample shows how a host and a guest can share one exchange, with each line spoken in its own voice.

- [Calm narrator, Italian](https://exemplary.ai/tts-audio/italian-520b06559236.mp3): Quando sono entrato in questa sala, mi hanno colpito subito queste vecchie ceramiche trovate giù al fiume. Se guardi bene i bordi dipinti, vedi proprio le scene di vita quotidiana e il lavoro nei campi durante le stagioni. (Delivery note: calm and warm) (In English: When I walked into this room, those old ceramics they found down by the river caught my eye right away. If you look closely at the painted borders, you really see the scenes of everyday life and farm work through the seasons.)
- [Clear explainer, Italian](https://exemplary.ai/tts-audio/italian-88c4ab997f7d.mp3): Guarda, per tenere in ordine lo spazio condiviso, io di solito apro una cartella a parte appena parte un progetto nuovo. È comodo, perché così chiunque del gruppo trova i file al volo senza mettersi a cercare nell'archivio. (Delivery note: clear and steady) (In English: Look, to keep the shared workspace tidy, I usually make a separate folder as soon as a new project starts. It is convenient, because that way everyone on the team finds the files right away without digging through the archive.)
- [Lively storyteller, Italian](https://exemplary.ai/tts-audio/italian-34b665e73fc4.mp3): Alla fine siamo arrivati su in collina proprio mentre il sole spariva dietro le nuvole. Davvero, che bel pomeriggio tranquillo per farsi una passeggiata tra gli ulivi. (Delivery note: warm and expressive) (In English: In the end we made it up the hill right as the sun slipped behind the clouds. Seriously, what a peaceful afternoon for a walk among the olive trees.)
- [Two voices in conversation, Italian](https://exemplary.ai/tts-audio/italian-76ad19a73022.mp3): Host: Con questo caldo le mie piante sul balcone stanno soffrendo un sacco. Tu come fai a tenerle così bene? / Guest: Ma guarda, il trucco è solo bagnarle la mattina presto, quando la terra nei vasi è ancora fresca. / Host: Ah ecco, non ci pensavo. E come erbe aromatiche, quali reggono bene tutto quel sole? / Guest: Vai di rosmarino e salvia, col caldo vengono su benissimo e non devi quasi starci dietro. (In English: With this summer heat my balcony plants are really struggling. How do you keep yours looking so nice? - Well look, the trick is just watering them early in the morning, while the soil in the pots is still cool. - Ah, that makes sense, I hadn't thought of that. What about herbs, which ones handle all that sun? - Go with rosemary and sage, they do great in the heat and you barely have to do a thing to them.)

## What you can make with spoken Italian

Spoken Italian is a practical choice for museum audio guides in Florence and Rome, narrated walks through historic piazzas, and Italian literature or opera introductions. You can write a script for a gallery walk or a historical overview and generate audio alongside a transcript that can be exported as subtitles.

You can also build language learning lessons, product explainers, and internal training modules for speakers in Italy and Italian-speaking Switzerland or students learning the language. When you update a single line in your script, only that line is made again, while the rest of your audio stays as it was.

## Writing Italian scripts for spoken audio

Standard Italian uses the Latin alphabet and has a fairly regular link between spelling and sound. Write in standard orthography and include all required grave and acute accent marks, which mark final-syllable stress in words like città or caffè and distinguish pairs of short words such as e and è or da and dà.

Every word in your script is spoken as written, so expand abbreviations, acronyms, and symbols into full Italian words before generating audio. Write out dates, times, and quantities in letters rather than digits so they match the grammar of your sentence, and keep foreign loanwords in their standard spelling as used in everyday Italian.

## Questions

### Which variety of Italian is used on this page?

The samples on this page are in Standard Italian, the language spoken and written across Italy and based on the Tuscan of Florence. While regional accents shaped by local languages such as Neapolitan and Sicilian are common in daily life, Standard Italian is the norm for public communication and media.

### How should I write abbreviations and dates in my Italian script?

Write out abbreviations, titles, and dates as full words in standard Italian spelling. For example, expand titles like dott. or prof. into dottore and professore. In Italian dates, the first day of a month uses the ordinal word primo with the definite article, as in il primo maggio, while other days use cardinal number words with the article, such as il dieci maggio.

### Do I need to mark word stress in Italian text?

Use only the standard written accent marks that belong to regular Italian spelling, which appear on words with a stressed final vowel and on certain one-syllable words that would otherwise look identical. Do not add extra marks or alter word division, since every word in your script is spoken as written.

### Can I use two voices in the same Italian audio file?

Yes, two voices can share one conversation in a single script. You assign a voice from the library to each speaker, and each turn is read in its own voice.

### How do delivery notes and expressions work?

You can attach a short delivery note, such as calm or cheerful, to shape the mood and manner of a line without it being read aloud. You can also place an expression like a sigh in the text, and it will be performed rather than spoken as a word.
