Versioned Voice Dictionaries
Sharni-Lee Ward
So I just updated to the latest NVDA, and I now have some issues thanks
to the changes with the voice dictionaries. I understand why since languages in espeak have changed names, but I lost several voice specific entries and don't remember what I did for them. I tried to fix one instance and although the pronunciation sounded right in the dictionary file, it didn't when I read the name in question somewhere else, although it was apparent some change had been made. This behaviour has never happened before, and the pronunciation of the replacement has been consistent in all places. I'm concerned that I might never get this name pronounced the way I want it again, and I've only tested this with one entry!

there. Things are mostly back on track, although the Japanese word the ProTalker synth pronounces wrong in the hiragana couldn't be copy/pasted into Jarte. It just came up as a line of question marks. But that's not vitally important to me right now so I'll let that slide for the time being. On a sort-of related note, though, Why was the pronunciation of the phrase "for the" and the word "percent" changed in espeakNG? They sound weird now...

I know the word forbid is not 4 bid but furbid once is unce. button is now buttung. I think we should use older but faithfull espeak which doesn't have this issue or simply make something that doesn't rely on it. Whoever develops this is clearly no longer english and is probably using google translate for everything.

Have a look in the folder where the dictionaries were you should find your old version in a sub directory. simply rename it to the new name and then copy it over the one you just created and restart nvda.

I think to be certain you need to do this manually in the user folder version then copy to log on afterwards to bring it back into the program folder. However this really depends on whether you wish to still use Espeak and not the speech player in Espeak add on version of Espeak. Brian bglists@... Sent via blueyonder.

Yes and percent is said differently in the progress to what it is in a document as well.
