SSML - change pronunciation of "conduct" so accent is on the second syllable.
Hi! I have a sentence where the AI voice is putting the emphasis on the 'con' instead of the 'duct' in the word conduct, e.g. "If you would like to conduct a survey." I'm assuming that I need to use...
It looks like if you need to look up pronunciations (without relying on the whims of AI search), a good source would be Pronunciation on Cambridge Dictionary. You can copy and paste the text that uses the international phonetic alphabet (e.g. kən'dʌkt) and put it in here:
<phoneme alphabet="ipa" ph="pronunciation goes here">
Woops sorry, I replied to the wrong comment.
Can I ask which voice you are using? I am using the Storyline x64 version and I only have Neural voices and don't have any Standard voices in "English (US)" anymore. The Storyling 360 help page is confusing, since it has a handful of SSML tags. No closing tags. Plus it shows that some tags are compatible with Neural voices and they are not. For instance, when I input Will's first comment, everything shows up properly colored with the SSML tags, but I can't update/save it and get an error. Also the page links to the Amazon SSML page, which includes a ton of SSML tags that aren't supported either.
