Hi Jewel,I just switch my voice to Karen enhanced, it says chess just fine. I wonder why that would be. Less and chess rhyme as they should. Richard

Siri says my name beautifully, but I want to get voice-over to say chess, rather than chiss. Aussie Karen says * less with no problem, so why can't she say * chess? The world is not going to come to an end if she continues to say chiss, but to get her to say chess correctly would be a feather in my moulting cap!

The AI is great for calling or sending messages, but it’s incredibly frustrating when you tell Siri to call Jaqueline and the AI searches the web for Violins. Luckily, you can teach Siri to pronounces your name or any name. Part of the personal assistant's capabilities is being able to learn. Whether it’s your name or a friends, you can correct Siri’s pronunciation in a few short steps. Here’s how to get Siri to say your name correctly. To teach Siri how to say a name correctly, hold the home button to activate Siri and then say, "That's not how Siri will then ask you how to pronounce the contact's first name. Say the name correctly. Siri will offer you two or three pronunciation options to choose from. Select the one that is the correct pronunciation. If none of the options are close enough, tap Tell Siri Again to repeat the process until you get a pronunciation you like. Siri will then repeat the process for the contact's last name as well. Having corrected Siri’s pronunciation, the AI should be able to say your name, or a friend's name, correctly now. "A guy walks into a bar and says 'ouch!'"

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. -- Casey -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
