Hello there, Got it what you are asking for.
If you are using the custom installation of the espeak, use the language code “en-in” And see it works.

It's great work. I'm having a little trouble understanding your specific concerns about 'eSpeak,' though. eSpeak has two variants: the desktop version where you can make small modifications using language codes, and the NVDA version, which already includes support for all Indian languages. Since your expectations are not quite clear, could you please let me know exactly what you're looking for? That way, we can make sure what you're saying is easily understandable by others.. Thanks!

I requested for Indian English Accent support more than 2 years ago. I am sending my request again: I am from India, which has the largest population of People with Visual Impairments in the world — more than 20 million people. eSpeak is an important tool for visually impaired users, but it currently lacks an Indian English accent, unlike American and British English. Indian English has its own pronunciation and usage style: • Schedule → “shed-yool” (Indian/British) vs “sked-jool” (American) • Data → “daa-tah” (Indian) vs “day-tuh” (American) • Advertisement → “ad-ver-tis-ment” (Indian) vs “ad-ver-tize-ment” (American) • Garage → “ga-raj” (Indian) vs “ga-rahj” (American) We also use lakhs and crores instead of millions and billions. Adding Indian English accent support will make eSpeak more natural, understandable, and inclusive for millions of Indian users who depend on screen readers daily. Please consider including this option in the next update.

For your information India has the maximum number of the Blind population in the World. Yes India has minimum 19 millions Blind according to the World Health Organization even though Espeak does not have support of English India accent unlike English USA, English (America, New York City) and Uk etc. We do not use millions and billions in our country instead we use Lakhs and Crore in India. This is a simple example of English India version differences. Like this we have many types of differences with another version of English like English UK and English USA etc that's why I request you Please give support for the English Indian accent in Espeak. I hope you will work on it. Regards: Ashutosh Singhal My contact number is: +91 8076798104 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Accessible World" group.
