Actually I found a thread where some guy used the language SPIN and synthesized speech using I think only the prop board and veho speaker. But I'd like to know how to do it in
C or C++.
hapalua, yes, you're asking about some of the speech synthesis efforts from Phil Pilgrim built upon Chip Gracey's efforts. There are code examples that support some speech synthesis from phonemes. I believe Phil made the most progress on this topic, so perhaps he'll jump in and reply with some examples.

Okay after looking at the Emic 2 Module carefully. I think I can manage to do this with a little help. How would I connect this module to an Activity Board?

The Emic2 can plug into the breadboard. From there you run wires where they need to go. No soldering needed. You will likely need a resistor between the Emic2's SOUT line and the Prop since the Emic2 is a 5V device. The resistor (any value between 3K and 20K should work) can easily be added to the breadboard.
The Veho will plug directly into the Emic2 not the audio port on the Activity Board.
Just about any microcontroller with two I/O pins free can use the Emic2 without the need to solder.
hey how come the sout and sin holes are plugged by the basic stamp in the boebot kit. and also i dont see the following (GND, 5V, SOUT, and SIN) in the basic stamp homework board?
is it not possible to use the emic 2 with the basic stamp kits? i hope the propeller activity board has accomodations for the emic 2. am i wrong? i also dont see GND and 5V labeled in the boebot kit board.

The easiest way is to use the EMIC Text-to-Speech:

Yes Phi has done some work in SPIN:

I don't think anyone has done anything in C yet.
See page 2 of the product documentation http://www.parallax.com/sites/default/files/downloads/30016-Emic-2-Text-To-Speech-Documentation-v1.1.pdf

Also, on the BASIC Stamp BOE, 5V = Vdd and Gnd = Vss.
