Right. If a simple hacker can do it, any developer can.

No, say some, because Acapela has ported their voices, and someone has hacked Eloquence to work. But, no one knows where to learn how to do it? That's a "walled garden" in my book.

The huge, giant, Bible sized problem is, that eSpeak is not supportive of voiceover.

Re: biblical greek on the mac
Hi, I'm just now catching up on this list and note no one suggested trying espeak for osx. Yes, it's a formant voice. However, it does provide a Classical Greek varient, and the maintainer is very supportive of specific suggestions for improving pronunciation. http://espeak.sf.net I have wondered, however, whether Classical Greek is what we really need for Biblical study, as the New Testament is in Koine Greek. Here again, I suspect Jonathan, the maintainer of espeak, would be supportive of building and providing a Koine voice, if some expert might give him specifics on what needs to be different. I would imagine Koine is relatively close to Classical Greek, as the time difference is only a few centuries. hth Janina Brian Howerton writes: > Hello all, > I am trying to teach myself new testament greek.

Re: biblical greek on the mac
No, they don’t although it would seem logical. and that’s because classical Greek has different or rather more numerous marks over the letters which Voiceover doesn’t interpret in speech.

I don't think that ancient / biblical Greek is going to work with these voices because the letters with the diacritic marks that are used are not recognised by Voiceover nor by any other voices mentioned above. But do check it out yourself. you can easily add Apple's Greek voices to the selection of voices on the mac, activate the appropriate keyboard and confirm this. I had no success with it when I got a piece of biblical text from somebody. I'm sorry not to have better news for you.

Re: biblical greek on the mac
Hi Brian, On my mac, I use Greek Braille tables with my refreshable Braille display and the table is in grade 1 Braille so I didn't have to learn much in order to read. I have very little experience of the Greek grade 2 Braille as i have no access to their Braille paper literature. On the mac side, you can choose Greek Braille table in Voiceover utility under the Braille tab. Incidentally, the Greek table on the mac also works fine for English so I don't have to switch Braille tables all the time. I just have the table set to Greek and it works for both English and Greek. Hope things are going to work out for you. Best wishes Andrew > On 15 Jul 2015, at 20:35, Brian Howerton wrote: > > No problem Andrew. That definitely helps though.
