    raise ImportError("No system module '%s' (%s)" % (modname, filename))
ImportError: No system module 'pywintypes' (pywintypes38.dll)

Am using windows and python 3.Any help s quick as possible

the code is here

import pyttsx3
friend = pyttsx3.init()
speech = input ("Say Something: ")
friend.say(speech)
friend.runAndWait()

Just copy the 'pythoncom39.dll' and 'pywintypes39.dll' from this path (usually these files are located here)

C:\Users\yourUser\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\pywin32_system32

to:

C:\Users\yourUser\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\win32\lib

It worked for me. I hope this has been helpful.
