My worries were confirmed about NVDA's New Espeak NG things. Mandarin is broken down in Espeak. I don't know, where to report It.

Thank You.

There were made some bad misstakes about Mandarin Espeak. I don't know, why, but I think, that some work of Espeak is at the begining.
It'll be maybe good to try create another speech synthesizer, because Espeak will soon be down. This is just my view on It.

Well espeak ng this version has a lot more issues with things even in english.

I noticed people having issues with espeak on skype, tyler who is one of the addon devs simply said to report it to espeakng, which is actually just dumb since all espeak ng is is a github page, I don't think they have email I havn't looked, point is do they care exactly.

Its nvaccess that uses espeak ng, and as I said, even though there were good reasons to upgrade synths, unless it breaks we shouldn't fix it.

Espeak 2015 worked, and in some cases better than ng ever did.

Now ng is a lot better I guess once I got used to the word adjustments but really not everyone is going to be a total git, not everyone is going to be that much of a git to report that espeakng is a git and needs fixing.

I still think even if its not default, old espeak whatever version should be included as an extra synth at least an addon or as part of nvda install even if espeak is not developed anymore, even if it will remain as it is for all time, for those that don't like the new datasets, it would fix a lot of user bitchings.

Thing is, the espeak devs were on here.

I don't know if the ng ones are, but I suspect not since none of them have posted here and said as much.

Its unlikely espeak itself will actually die as a synth.

Its in android, and linux distros all over the technoverse, its unlikely that espeak itself will die.

However now we have said burger off to xp, and vista, we are also saying screw basically every single core system to.

And with this being done, I question the need for inbuilt synths.

After win7 finally dies, with the good voices out there I question the need especially with the stuff on win10 and faster system of us needing a good synth bar one that is a fallback if something internal fails.

Standard crappy espeak is fine for admin work, it may be crappy but its good if something totally falls over.

There are others, pico which is on android and linux, maybe that could be a default synth I don't know.

But you are right, nvaccess should actually work on its own synth, not based of espeak but its own synth for its own software.

Heck if they want to sell it for sapi at 20 or 30 bucks and maybe other oses I'll buy it but to be honest I do wander.

Espeak will! not! die though, not death as you know it but the devs are clearly not on here.

OK, bug is discovered, I think It is misstake of Espeak NG.
There are two voices classified, as Mandarin Chinese. One is incorrect and countains bugs. Two voices labelled, as Mandarin Chinese in direction with chinese voices.

hi,

  this question will be fix on espeak 1.49.3.
