How to make Python speak

You should try using the PyTTSx package since PyTTS is outdated. PyTTSx works with Python 2. For Python 3, install the PyTTSx3 package.

A bit cheesy, but if you use a mac you can pass a terminal command to the console from python.

Try typing the following in the terminal:

$ say 'hello world'

And there will be a voice from the mac that will speak that. From python such a thing is relatively easy:

import os
os.system("echo 'hello world'")
os.system("say 'hello world'")
