The present invention provides a speech signal compression device which allows a storage capacity of data representing speech to be efficiently compressed. In the present invention, a computer C1 operates with respect to speech data to be compressed into speech data for each phoneme on the basis of phoneme labeling data, to unify the time length of a unit pitch section for each of the divided speech data into the same value, thereby creating a pitch waveform and creating a sub-band data representing variation in time of spectrum components of the pitch waveform signal. Also, this sub-band data is compressed so as to match a condition designated by a table for compression, and the compressed data is further encoded in entropy to output the entropy coded data.
