flite: Convert a text string to speech.

flite

$ flite -t "${string}"

try on your machine

The command "flite -t "${string}"" is a command-line instruction that uses the program "flite" to convert text to speech.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

"flite": represents the name of the program or command that is being executed. In this case, it refers to a text-to-speech synthesis program called flite.
"-t": is an option or flag used with the "flite" command. It is followed by the input text that needs to be converted into speech.
"${string}": is a placeholder that represents a variable or input value. The actual text that needs to be converted to speech should be placed in the "string" variable. The "${}" notation is used to reference the value of the variable.

By running this command with a specific "string" value, the text provided in the variable would be processed by "flite" which would then convert it into speech output.
