1. A mobile terminal comprising:
- a display unit configured to display a text corresponding to a sentence unit;
an audio output module configured to output a synthetic sound generated from converting the text to a sound; and
a controller configured to;
generate the synthetic sound;
extract a meaning of the text;
cause a feedback to be output corresponding to the meaning of the text while the synthetic sound is output via the audio output module, wherein the feedback comprises a background sound of the synthetic sound;
analyze a sound wave of the background sound and set an exceeding interval in which an amplitude of the sound wave is greater than a threshold, wherein the threshold comprises an average amplitude of the sound wave;
cause a vibration to be output while the background sound is output, wherein the vibration is output when the exceeding interval is output via the audio output unit; and
adjust an output strength of the vibration based on a rate between the average amplitude of the sound wave and a maximum amplitude in the exceeding interval.

Abstract
A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a feedback matching a meaning of a natural language is outputted in the course of outputting a sound corresponding to the natural language by sentence unit. The present invention includes a display unit configured to display a text by sentence unit, an audio output module configured to output a synthetic sound generated from converting the text to a sound, and a controller configured to generate the synthetic sound, extract a meaning of the text, and control a feedback matching the meaning of the text to be outputted while the synthetic sound is outputted via the audio output module.

8. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
displaying a text corresponding to a sentence unit; generating a synthetic sound by converting the text to a sound; extracting a meaning of the text; determining a feedback corresponding to the meaning of the text; outputting the synthetic sound; outputting the feedback while the synthetic sound is output, wherein the feedback comprises a background sound of the synthetic sound; analyzing a sound wave of the background sound and setting an exceeding interval in which an amplitude of the sound wave is greater than a threshold, wherein the threshold comprises an average amplitude of the sound wave; outputting a vibration while the background sound is output, wherein the vibration is output when the exceeding interval is output via an audio output unit; and adjusting an output strength of the vibration based on a rate between the average amplitude of the sound wave and a maximum amplitude in the exceeding interval.
