Abstract(in English)	In this paper, a voice conversion method which can emphasize an emotional factor of utterance or can change intonation relating with reginal dialect is proposed. Several researches about controlling intonation or prosody are going on, however, degradation of speech quality is unavoidable in case of wave form processing. So spectrogram is modified to convert intonation to minimize the degradation of intelligibility. By this system, utterance speed, pitchsequence and power sequence are analized automatically from reference spoken voice and then these prosody information can be copied to stored natural voice sequence to convert into target emotion or dialect.
