I’ve been using JAWS and NVDA 2017 (prior big update) for a long time. Recently I have installed the current version of NVDA.
It seems like there have been made changes regarding how interpunction is treated in the text-to-speech modules. NVDA pauses much longer at the end of sentences for example. I believe brackets are also treated differently, creating longer pauses. This pausing, probably having some advantages, dramatically slows down how fast I can go through texts and confuses me when working.
How can I make NVDA read text like it used to in versions of 2017 and prior?

Just to make sure by current version you mean NVDA 2020.3 - right?

what synthesizer are you using now, and what synth were you using with NVDA 2017?
