I’m getting that same mispronunciation running iOS 14.8 on my SE 2020. I noticed it also on the message header for a Southwest Airlines email. I’m using Samantha enhanced and have not yet updated to iOS 15.

Hi, I just sent the below to apple accessibility. Curious if any of you have noticed it and if it’s fixed in IOS 15. Since updating to IOS 14.8, I noticed a very strange mispronunciation. I first saw it with reading an email from Southwest Airlines using VoiceOver. Then I noticed it when reading a news story in Newsify where the article mentioned South Carolina. This happens using Samantha and Samantha Enhanced and wit Siri #1 and Siri #4. It did not occur when I switched to Alex. Examples: “South Carolina: - If I read by word, it reads correctly. If I read by line or continuous reading, it just says something like “Saw ja tee” and won’t even say “Carolina”. If I ask Siri for the capital of S.C., she will mispronounce “South” the same way, but will say “Carolina”. South Pacific: VoiceOver will mispronounce “South” as above, but will correctly say Pacific when reading by line or continuously When I type “Southwest”,, it is reading it correctly, but was not reading it correctly on the header for my email from Southwest Airlines. It sounds like it is saying “saw ja tee west”. This could be fixed in IOS 15, but I haven’t upgraded yet, having heard about a VoiceOver bug in the App switcher. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
