Do the same for button 2 3 and 4 .
Briefly;

Double-click the form screen to go to the code screen, and do as you see in the image.
Codes;
using System.Speech.Synthesis;
SpeechSynthesizer voice;
voice = new SpeechSynthesizer();

We go back to the form screen and double-click on the speak button.

And we write our codes
private void btnSpeak_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{

         }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Message", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
        }
    }

We also do the same for pause, resume and save buttons

Return to the form screen and click once on the combo box to make the setting in the image.

Then double-click on the talk button and come to the code screen and make it look like in the picture.
Codes;
private void btnSpeak_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
switch (cboSelectVoice.SelectedIndex)
{
case 0:
voice.SelectVoiceByHints(VoiceGender.NotSet);
break;
case 1:
voice.SelectVoiceByHints(VoiceGender.Male);
break;
case 2:
voice.SelectVoiceByHints(VoiceGender.Female);
break;
case 3:
voice.SelectVoiceByHints(VoiceGender.Neutral);
break;
default:
break;
}
voice.SpeakAsync(txtContent.Text);

Then come and edit btnPause_Click
try
{
voice.Pause();
}
26.png


Then come and edit btnResume_Click
try
{
voice.Resume();
}
27.png


Then come and edit btnSave_Click
private void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
using (SaveFileDialog sfd = new SaveFileDialog())
{
sfd.Filter = "Wav files|*.wav";
sfd.Title = "Save to a wave file";
if (sfd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
FileStream fs = new FileStream(sfd.FileName, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);
voice.SetOutputToWaveStream(fs);
voice.Speak(txtContent.Text);
}
}
}
