摘要 The term "Experimental" in the title means, that the synthesizer is constructed as tool to conduct experiments, for investigating the influence of environment of unit on sounding of it. Synthesizer as tool for testing of hypotheses and results of experiments, satisfy three conditions: independence from the selection of unit for the synthesis (word or any part of it); taking into account the environment of unit (left and right hand contexts and position of unit); independence from the content of base. Such synthesizer is a good tool for studying many aspects of speech and removes the problem of selection. We can vary the unit and other parameters, described in paper, by the same synthesizer, synthesize the same text and listen to the results directly. This paper describes the formal structure of experimental Georgian speech synthesizer.
