Re: pronunciation query

[Lloyd Rasmussen via Talk]

I have noticed this bug with the Eloquence synthesizer for a few years. It 
may have been introduced when they changed the software to prevent certain 
strings from crashing Eloquence. If you use the DecTalk synthesizer, Caleb 
will be pronounced cakeb! The Microsoft Speech Framework synthesizers, Zera 
and Helen will expand more abbreviations than you can shake a stick at. And 
the Vocalizer synthesizers clearly have quirks, too.

Using Win7 with WE 9.5.4. I noticed recently that when reading documents 
where an apostrophy-s occurs after a name ending with the letter h that the 
apostrophy-s is not spoken in normal reading mode. Two examples:   Jehovah’s 
Isaiah’s.  If I do a word by word cursor they do speak the apostrophy-s.  Of 
course, words or names ending with another letter followed by the 
apostrophy-s do seem to read normally, i. e. brother’s, sister’s, Rod’s, and 
Tom’s.
The question is:  Is there a fix or is this just something that needs a fix? 
Now that I am aware of the problem I am able to deal with it as needed.

RE: deletion of win eyes

[Rod Hutton via Talk]

Hi Don,

If you think Window-Eyes is loading, try pressing Control-Windows-m to unmute 
the sound card.
This happened to me, and I think it was during the Windows Creator's update, 
but I can't quite recall.

Hth,

Rod

Looks like I have aproblem with windows 10 and possibly the greater update.

Since I can't get any info from the screen with win eyes or narrater, I am
going to have a tech guy look at it.

It might come to the question of reinstalling win eyes, if so, is it
possible to install over my present version or is it best to uninstall.

I am running latest version of win eyes, 9.5.4 I think

RE: pronunciation query

[Van Lant, Robin via Talk]

That is interesting.  I'm reading the examples in your message and it's 
consistent for me across all 3 of your examples.  Are you trying to get it to 
say the word apostrophe?  In my default settings, I   have screen voice 
settings set to not read miscellaneous punctuation.  So, when I read your 
examples, I can hear the sounds of the S at the end of each word, but WE did 
not voice the presence of the apostrophe.  If I turn miscellaneous punctuation 
on then I hear WE voice an apostrophe  and the subsequent S after each word.   
Hmmm.. I'm wondering if this is a synthesizer difference, especially if you are 
just trying to hear that there is a S there and not necessarily trying to get 
WE to say the word apostrophe.

You could use the exception dictionary and put the word without the apostrophe

Re: Question About JART

[Tom Kingston via Talk]

Dave,
The only time I get the repeating line is when I use read to end and 
there isn't a blank line below the last line. That last line repeats 
continually until I silence it. Then I add a blank line and it works fine.
You can also try Control-Shift-Escape to open the Task Manager instead 
of rebooting. The Task Manager should always interrupt all other 
processes and open. This may stop the repeating speech. If not try 
hitting Insert-Backslash to refresh the screen. It also refreshes your 
synthesizer and flushes the speech buffer.
Regarding the spell checker? If Jarte is in screen reader mode it should 
all be in a context menu. Within that menu I get the misspelling 
followed by a Context pull down. Arrow right and the line containing the 
misspelling is voiced.

If Jarte is in screen reader mode the title bar should be as follows:
FileName.ext - Jarte Plus   (screen reader mode)
Hth,
Tom
