Provided you're using iOS 10.x, you can add custom pronunciations. Go to Settings, General, Accessibility, Speech, Pronunciations and add the words you wish. You type in the word being mispronounced in the phrase field and in the substitution field either type in the correct phonetic pronunciation or dictate it. I'll warn you that dictating has been spotty at best with iOS 10.2.
Alan Lemly From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jewel Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2017 11:28 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: fixing the way siri says someones name Moving on from Siri pronouncing names wrongly, can one give voice-over: in my case, Australian Samantha or is it Karen?: the same instruction on everyday words? The everyday word being comic which Samantha/Karen pronounces as "carmic". The future of the nation will neither rise nor will it fall by it, but I want to reeducate whichever of the worthy ladies is filling the role of voice-over supremo as to its correct pronunciation. If she pronounces comic as carmic, which she does, she should pronounce copy as carpy which she does not. Jewel -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
