I like that as well, as I'm used to thinking of the characters in that
manner; my brain has to do a quick conversion to figure out what I'm
supposed to press.

Subject: [Braillenote] request for kng pronunciation
Hi all, but mainly hw:
I would like to make a minor request that, despite being simple, will
drastically improve reading with kng. In the following sentence, the
words between the dashes are spoken after a pause, and it sounds great.
This sentence - with only one dash before and after this section - is
spoken perfectly.
The next sentence, though, uses the very common double dash in place of
the single dash above. Notice, if you are using kng, how much worse it
sounds.
This sentence--using two dashes for this section--is spoken very badly.
I would like to use the same pronunciation for double dashes, as in
example 2, that is currently used for single dashes, as in example one.
Also, when in UEB, I would like to hear "lower d" instead of period,
"lower g" instead of "2 3 5 6", and so on for all lower-cell characters.
I know why dots are spoken in ueb, but I think it would sound better to
use "lower [letter]" where possible, as well as switching dot 6 to be
spoken as "dot 6" instead of "capital sign".
Thanks for reading!
Have a great day,
Alex
