how can a synthesizer teach you spelling?

To me that is a narrow definition of reading charlse. If an author
wrote the words and I understand them, I've read them, heck even when
I used to read books in braille I always imagined the sound of the
words in my brain rather than just picking up on the letters.
For a sighted person, it is slightly different, but given the time it
takes to read something in braille why take the time? If you think
these old skills are so valuable, well do you have central heating in
your home or do you go out, chop down trees and put them on a fire? Do
you go out and hunt creatures in the forest with a spear? sinse hay,
what would you do without electricity.
Unless tactile display can catch up with technology, (which I hope it
does), I don't personally see braille surviving as a medium sinse the
majority of things it can do for conveying information can be done far
more easily and cheaply by a screen reader.
As regards speaking, well as I said I could see a problem if the
software is too dictatorial, but if you could for example specify your
punctuation and spell your fantasy names to the software so you would
have the same creative freedom with your text as you would when
typing, ---- well what is the problem?
