One quite annoying mispronunciation I've encountered in iOS 9.0.2 is that
capitol "B" is not pronounced at all correctly. It sound to these ears as if
VoiceOver were saying "Cap Lee."
This happens whether I'm in the CONTACTS and perusing each capitol letter,
checking the spelling of a word character by character or any other endeavor
where the "B" should be pronounced "Cap B."
I will add, this also happens with the lower case "b" minus the "Cap" of course.
I'm using an iPhone 6, 128 GB, U.S. English.
Has anybody else encountered this?

OK, first off, this is not the public beta. I'm speaking of the official I
O S build. that being said, this does happen as well on the beta. I tested
it. Technically, I probably shouldn't be saying that, but anyway...
Try this for yourself.
1. Switch your speech to the enhanced quality Symantha voice. It's the
only one where I'm seeing this occur.
2. Type in the word "bit", b i t. bit. then, have it read back just the
individual word. Notice that it reads it correctly.
3. Now however, do this. Type in a full sentence and use the word "bit" b
i t, in the middle of the sentence. Make sure there's at least one word after
it in the sentence.
Now mark? Do not put me on moderator status here. We are all? adults
here. OK? I'm not cussing like in my last thread. I'm quoting a bug here.
I'm not trying to unprofessionally curse. So, let's be mature about this! I'm
gonna be quite angry if you call me out on this publicly or not. But
seriously, you'll notice, instead of saying bit, it instead says, bitch! b i t
c h. Like a female dog.
Example: I hope it explains things a bit differently, would actually come
out as: I hope it explains things a bitch differently.
If you read word by word though with your rotor, you'll notice that you
did! spell things correctly, and that in all actuality, the word bit, b i t, is
written, not the other word.
Is that! not just totally! bizarre? If you don't believe me with this, and
think I'm only writing this for attention, then, here's your proof:
