ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a broadcast receiver, comprising a control circuit (7) for applying encoded messages, derived from a broadcast signal, to at least one storage device (12, 28), for receiving control data, derived from the encoded messages, from at least one storage device (12, 28), and for forming messages from the control data in a form suitable for a speech synthesizer circuit (14). The control data contains phonetic notations which are composed of phonetic characters. The speech synthesizer circuit (14) is capable of converting a given number of phonetic characters into announcements. In order to enable speech output in a language not envisaged thus far, at least one storage device (28) stores given phonetic characters which cannot be converted by the speech synthesizer circuit (14) and with which at least one substitute character (convertible phonetic character) is associated. The control circuit (7) supplies the speech synthesizer circuit (14) with non-convertible phonetic characters and associated substitute characters from at least one storage device (28).
