1. A method, comprising:
- at a computer comprising a computer program to implement processing operations;
receiving data related to content of a target;
filtering the data to locate a target term;
accessing one or more tables in a repository, the one or more tables comprising entries with a substitution unit corresponding to the target term, the entries arranged according to a prioritized scheme that defines a position for the substitution unit in the tables; and
generating an output comprising data that represents the substitution unit to be utilized by a text-to-speech generator to generate spoken content,wherein the position of the substitution unit in the one or more tables is assigned based on a specificity characteristic that describes the relative inclusivity of the substitution unit as compared to other substitution units in the one or more tables.

Abstract
A contextual conversion platform, and method for converting text-to-speech, are described that can convert content of a target to spoken content. Embodiments of the contextual conversion platform can identify certain contextual characteristics of the content, from which can be generated a spoken content input. This spoken content input can include tokens, e.g., words and abbreviations, to be converted to the spoken content, as well as substitution tokens that are selected from contextual repositories based on the context identified by the contextual conversion platform.
