About the voices:

The voices are synthetic. Therefore the words and sentences may not be pronounced in the way you would expect. Here comes a few tips on how to "trick" the voice into pronouncing what you have written in the most natural way:

  • Check that what you wrote is actually correct!!!
    This is the most common cause of unnatural speech...
  • Do not write words in upper case, the speech engine may
    think that it should spell out the letters of such words.
  • Try different punctuation marks in the end of a sentence,
    for instance comma, period and question mark.
  • Write more phonetically correct (as words are pronounced).
    This is easiest to do in languages were words are written
    closer to how they are pronounced.
  • Add small words like some, always, etc.
  • Rephrase the sentence, it is often easier than you think.
  • Short, simple sentences are often the best.
