$ espeak -v ${voice}

try on your machine

The command "espeak -v ${voice}" is a command used to run the "espeak" text-to-speech (TTS) engine in the command line.

Here's an explanation of each component:

"espeak": This is the name of the program or command that will be executed. In this case, it refers to the "espeak" TTS engine.
"-v": This is an option or flag used to specify the voice to be used by the TTS engine. It stands for "voice".
"${voice}": This is a placeholder or variable that represents the voice to be used. The actual name of the voice would be provided when running the command. For example, if you wanted to use the voice named "english+f2", you would replace "${voice}" with "english+f2".

In summary, this command instructs the espeak TTS engine to use a specific voice specified by the "${voice}" variable. The exact voice to be used is determined when running the command by replacing "${voice}" with the desired voice name.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
