I will never ever never ever never ever use ESpeak. Its horrid and like I’ve said billions of time on this this is a put off for people like my wife who is also blind and has a progressive hearing

I'll admit I've not heard Eloquence outside of Jaws and the addon I was sent some years back. I didn't know the version in Jaws was different to Eloquence on its own. The one in the addon I have

Re: I take it there have been no improvements to the flawed espeak ng in 2017.4?

I'm sorry for how snappish I was the other night. I know things need to be improved, but as explained in other messages, I use NVDA to read stories and text posts more than anything else, and when I
