Hi all,
Hey, if you think you have a problem, with pronunciation, you should
have my difficulty. I'm reading a book from bookshare, and one of the
characters is named Diogenes. Keynote insists the man's name is
Dyojeans. I mean really, it sounds kinky, or maybe it's a new kind of
medical procedure. I fixed it in the pronunciation dictionary. He's
one of the main characters. I couldn't stand it! Dyojeans, I mean I
ask you? I guess the character held up his lantern and the truth was
revealed, no speech synthesizer is perfect! That's my honest
statement for the day. I did find that by spelling it Diogennees I
made Keynote tow the line, or at least it sort of does. It puts more
emphasis on the last syllable than it really should, but at least it's
better than dyojeans. I guess Keynote doesn't speak Greek.
