Re: Emoticons with VO pronunciation
Hi Wes: Well I'm afraid I tried that and had no luck either. The only things that comes to mind is that the colon D must be given another meaning in one of the other emoticons in the table.

Re: Emoticons with VO pronunciation
No, I was able to read each character, and I entered it right. There is no other :D symbol or anything. The only thing I can think of, is that it's some sort of weird bug. I can't do 3 for love or heart either. I emailed the Apple people, told them my situation, asked them what was going on.

Re: Emoticons with VO pronunciation
Hi Carolyn, Wes, Brett, and Others, I suspect the reason that you can't set up the VO pronunciation editor to speak emoticons for :D (colon d form big smile) and 3 (less 3) is that you could get potential confusion in situations where you are normally typing with colons or in mathematical expressions. Can you imagine a passage where someone is using capital letters as a shortcut or code to refer to the names individuals (as sometimes occurs in books, or where one is reading paragraphs of a diary referring to people by their initials), and because there is no space between the colon and the d someone all of a sudden hears laughing face or big smile? That would really be confusing! Or, for example, someone who is trying to read a math equation comes to the part where an algebraic expression is less than 3, and hears love or heart in the middle? I'd imagine that the annoyance value of having VoiceOver substitute emoticons under these circumstances would be considerable. Just think of having to explain to your math teacher that you couldn't do your math homework because you've set up your screen reader to pronounce 3 correctly for emoticons on Facebook. HTH.

Re: Emoticons with VO pronunciation
Hi There! On some of the facebook versions there is a - between the : and the D so :-D might work or not! I used to put :-] on my emails but found that :] worked but the other version works on fb! It is also funny the ones that Carolyn put say smilie but the ones I've typed do not [ go figure] Colin Qapla!

Can you imagine a passage where someone is using capital letters as a shortcut or code to refer to the names individuals (as sometimes occurs in books, or where one is reading paragraphs of a diary referring to people by their initials), and because there is no space between the colon and the d someone all of a sudden hears laughing face or big smile? That would really be confusing! Or, for example, someone who is trying to read a math equation comes to the part where an algebraic expression is less than 3, and hears love or heart in the middle? I'd imagine that the annoyance value of having VoiceOver substitute emoticons under these circumstances would be considerable. Just think of having to explain to your math teacher that you couldn't do your math homework because you've set up your screen reader to pronounce 3 correctly for emoticons on Facebook. HTH.

Re: Emoticons with VO pronunciation
Hi Colin: That smiley came with Alex, and Silly as it sounds, it endeared me to him. It's the only one I easily remember, and I know I overuse it.:) Can't help myself.

Re: Emoticons with VO pronunciation
I have been attempting to create a labeled pronunciation for :D for over a year, with no luck. No matter how many times I try, VoiceOver just says D. Like you, I can create labeled pronunciations for most everything else. I'd like to hear from you if you find a solution. Brett C.

For example, I do :D (Collin D), for a laughing face. I put :D in the first box, then laughingface, in the second. And all Apps is checked. I even hit enter. Is there something I'm missing? Can someone try it out and tell me if there is something that I am missing? Thanks. BTW, if I put names in there, and sub it with the correct pronunciation, it works. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Emoticons with VO pronunciation
Wes: I had training in this, but can't remember how to gt to pronunciation dictionary. If you or someone will refresh my apparently senior-like memory, I'll play with it and see if I can be of help.

It's in the VO utility. Under speech, than Pronunciation. On Feb 11, 2011, at 6:41 PM, Carolyn Haas wrote: Wes: I had training in this, but can't remember how to get to pronunciation dictionary.
