Yes, the regular tom. I just checked to make sure, LAST with all caps speaks

These kind of things tend to be voice specific. I use tom and it doesn't do as

Hi!
The only thing you could do is to contact apple accessibility about it.

Hi Dave,
I don’t believe that you’d be able to fix that, other than for specific words
that you put in your pronunciation dictionary. There’s not really a generic,
“Do this for all things that start with” option.
