I use TTS all the time for my courses; however, I find that I have to manipulate TTS to get the desired results. Case in point: Course heading 275. TTS calls it two-hundred seventy-five so I type in two-seven-five to get the desired result. The same is true for certain acronyms like AWEA (American Wind Energy Association), which is pronounced aWEEah. The TTS voice of Matthew doesn't sound as robotic as the other voices. I still think this is one neat feature and will continue to use it.
Thanks for your comment and insights! That's a good point that sometimes you need to manipulate the text a bit to get the speech to sound exactly how you want it to. That would be a great topic for an article! Thanks for the idea! :)
- Most TTS generators have a tool for customizing pronunciation without altering spelling
I’m not sure where it is in SL
Maybe someone from Articulate can chime in
