Hey all,
This is merely a suggestion, but one that affects me directly. Could we
have a phonetic version of the hosts given name available within our host
profiles?
My given name in HPR is "thelovebug", pronounced "the-love-bug".... but
espeak pronounces it "theh-luhv-eh-bug"... which isn't quite (read: at
all!) as intended. I've noticed there are other hosts whose given name gets
totally put through the mincer by espeak (not naming names, but a certain
North West England correspondent whose given name is almost a sentence).
Is there enough demand to request that a change is made, or is this simply
a case of "suck it up, Dave"?
Thanks all,
Dave
