Try that and see. If that doesn't work, that leaves two options the way I see

1. Siri cannot say it the way you want.
2. Call Apple Accessibility and see if they have other ideas.
Good luck.

Hi I have someone in my contact list that one time siri asked me how to
say that persons name.
So now how can you correct that way siri is saying the name if you
didn't like what she has changed it to if you have already had her make
the change once?
And told her that was the way to say it.
I'm not sure if there is a list.
You might try searching ApleVis to see if there are some tutorial podcasts.

Thanks both.
I had been looking on Amazon at that camera, but it seemed to be considerably
more expensive than some of the other options. However, something can be as
cheap as it likes, but if it doesn’t work, it doesn’t matter how cheap it is,
does it?
