In this paper an overview of problems and prospects of voice input/output to a computer are discussed. Current attempts to provide speech input/output facilities to a computer are described. The scope of speech recognition problem is defined. Issues involved in the design of text-to-speech and speech-to-text systems are discussed. Since any sophisticated voice input/output system uses several language speclfic features, a case is made for a different approach for designing these systems for Indian languages.
