Speech Naturalness is a perceptual attribute of spoken language that belongs to the broader category of speech evaluation metrics and is distinguished by its focus on the degree to which an individual's speech output approximates the rhythmic, intonational, and pausal patterns characteristic of spontaneous, unstrained fluent speech in natural communication contexts.
