Adding Words to the Pronunciation Dictionary
Each synthesizer speaks words in its own way. You can add
pronunciation exceptions to a dictionary for each synthesizer. The voice
synthesizer on the Editor is not the same as the one on the device, and
the two will not pronounce words in the same way. Pronunciation
changes made on the Editor will not impact the device.
To add a word to the pronunciation dictionary:
1. Choose Menu
or > Settings > Speech Output > Voice >
Pronunciations.
2. Choose Menu
or > New.
3. Type the word in the Pronounce box.
4. Tap Next.
5. Type the word’s phonetic spelling in the Pronounce As box.
6. Test the word by choosing Pronounce It.
7. Once the word is pronounced properly, choose Done.
8. Choose Save.
To edit or delete a word from within the dictionary, press and hold on
the entry and choose the appropriate option.
