MRSpeechDispatcher provides an easy-to-use interface for producing synthesized speech from text on an iOS device:

MRSpeechDispatcher *dispatcher = MRSpeechDispatcher.defaultSpeechDispatcher;
dispatcher.reusedSynthesizer = [[AVSpeechSynthesizer alloc] init];
[dispatcher speechText:@"Now relax." withAnimus:MRSpeechAnimusGlad];
[dispatcher speechText:@"And close your eyes." withAnimus:MRSpeechAnimusRegular];
[dispatcher keepQuiteFor:2];
[dispatcher speechText:@"Well done!" withAnimus:MRSpeechAnimusGlad];
[dispatcher speechText:@"See you the next session!" withAnimus:MRSpeechAnimusHurry];

In the example above the dispatcher enqueues the texts to be spoken by wrapping the produced AVSpeechUtterance instances into MRSpeechUtteranceOperation objects and adding them to its NSOperationQueue.

But MRSpeechUtteranceOperation can also be created and used independently just as any other NSOperation instance:

AVSpeechUtterance *utterance = [AVSpeechUtterance speechUtteranceWithString:@"hello"];
NSOperation *operation = [MRSpeechUtteranceOperation speechOperationWithUtterance:utterance];
[operation start];
