Hi all,
Not sure if there's anything that can be done about this but I'm going to ask
anyway. A friend of mine From Austria sent me a story that she wrote and even
though she wrote it in English when I tried to read it Jaws read it in German
even though I use it in English. She doesn't have any idea why this happened and
she said that it also happened to someone else that she sent it to. Any idea
what I might be able to do other then change the Jaws language which I really
don't want to do since it's only one story and her emails read just fine? Using
latest versions of Jaws, Microsoft 365 and Windows 11 and I use the default
voice; really hope someone can help me as I really want to be able to read her
story.

Hello Madison:

In JAWS Settings, turn off Detect Language. You can do this globally by
altering the default settings or only for the Word settings.

Press Insert+6. Search for the word "detect". "detect languages" will be in
the results list.

Okay; I found something that says detect language based on mark-up of document,
is that the right result? If so it says that there are a series of checkboxes
but none show up, what do I do?

No. It is detect language. Press JAWS Key with the number 6. Type detect.
Arrow down a few times until you hear detect language. It will say on or
off. My guess is that you have this turned on.

English and it said that the change was being applied to the Windows OS which I
assumed meant that it'd be applied globably, was I wrong?

I would select and copy the text of the message.
I would open my browser and visit Google.
Search, translate Google.
Now there is an edit field in which you would paste the copied text.
Going back to virtual-cursor, there are three buttons just above the edit
field to be certain the text was detected correctly, your case German, now
use the English button to read the text in the edit field as English.

I would select and copy the text of the message.
I would open my browser and visit Google.
Search, translate Google.
Now there is an edit field in which you would paste the copied text.
Going back to virtual-cursor, there are three buttons just above the edit
field to be certain the text was detected correctly, your case German, now
use the English button to read the text in the edit field as English.

Hi all,
Not sure if there's anything that can be done about this but I'm going to
ask anyway. A friend of mine From Austria sent me a story that she wrote and
even though she wrote it in English when I tried to read it Jaws read it in
German even though I use it in English. She doesn't have any idea why this
happened and she said that it also happened to someone else that she sent it
to. Any idea what I might be able to do other then change the Jaws language
which I really don't want to do since it's only one story and her emails
read just fine?
Using
latest versions of Jaws, Microsoft 365 and Windows 11 and I use the default
voice; really hope someone can help me as I really want to be able to read
her story.

I'm assuming the text Madison is talking about is already ine nglish, and
just impropertly marked up.

Personally I always set detect languages to off in screen readers. I
appreciate the thought, but don't really feel it's worth dealing with the
many mistaken detections that result in your synthesiser changing
voices/variants/accents in not always predictable ways.

Right. Unless this is being overridden by the settings in Word. Try changing
this in the default setting control shift d. Do this first, check what
happens, and if not, then go into Word, open the document, open Settings
Center, and turn off detect languages.

Madison,
You might also try pasting the story into Notepad. I've had it before where the text was clearly in English, but something hidden was reading in a foreign language. I didn't think to try this at the time, but wonder if pasting it into Notepad would strip out any weirdness.

Hello Madison and others,

Detect language is found in Quick Settings, not in Settings Center. While in the relevant application (Outlook or Word), press Insert v, type language, down arrow to detect language and uncheck it, and then tab to the OK button and press Enter.

Hi David,
It is located in jaws settings center, under the "text processing"
options, after invoking the default to all applications.
That's the better place to turn it on or off it applies to all applications.
much easier than redoing it with every program needed to be done with.

Hi,

In settings center, I found detect keyboard language and unchecking that did not fix the problem. In quick settings, unchecking language check does fix it.

David
Hareth
 

The keyboard language detect is not the right one.
Try to find it like this:
After opening the settings center and default it to all applications,
tab once, press the "T" to find "text processing" open it and there
you'd find "language processing" open it to find and turn on or off
the "detect language" feature.
That work's for all apps in one go.

OK, I now see the confusion. In Quick Settings, this is a checkbox that you check or uncheck. When you Down arrow to it in Settings Center, you need to spacebar on it a couple of times until it says off. This is somewhat confusing, but it does work. So you can make the change in both places
