Sandra,

All I can suggest is to play around with unusual letter combinations, and
even consider the grave accent mark or apostrophe to modify the way the
sound comes out. Bear in mind that this would be done one way with
Eloquence, but would be very different with some other synthesizer -- they
vary quite a bit in their phoneme dictionaries.

Hi, all:

Is there a way to get JAWS to replicate the French soft J sound, as in “Jean
Valjean”? I was trying to change its pronunciation of that name in the
dictionary manager program, but couldn’t get it to pronounce it as I knew it
should be pronounced. Any pointers, appreciated! Thanks!
