There should be more than one pronunciation dictionary on the BN like there is in WindowEyes. The WE dictionaries are more functional. But it isn't really fair to compare the BN to any PC screen reader because they are different products designed for different purposes. But I couldn't resist praising WindowEyes.

Unfortunately you can't type more than one word in the first field where you type what is mispronounced. : People also don't have to worry about a letter combination being pronounced differently because the change only works for hole words. That does mean that if you fix a word, but then come across that word or name with an s at the end of it it will be mispronounced as if you hadn't fixed its pronunciation. : : I have to say that i like the JAWS pronunciation dictionary the best out of what I have used, because it is extremely unpicky about what you put in there. I fix multiple words with it, and I have even put the strings of punctuation that make up emoticons in the dictionary so they are said. :-) : The BrailleNote's pronunciation dictionary is very limited, but it works for most things and fortunately most things are said correctly in the first place. If you don't want frustration in your life don't get obsessed about fixing the pronunciation of bible books. : : Sarah Van Oosterwijck : Assistive Technology Trainer : http://home.earthlink.net/~netentity : ___ : To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit : http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote : : : : __________ NOD32 1.1423 (20060301) Information __________ : : This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. : http://www.eset.com : : ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
