Re: [orca-list] Orca and greek symbols



Hi Joanye.

I'm not talking about any specific cases. I just noticed that Russian speech synthesizer does not pronounce the Greek characters. For this reason, I asked who should control the pronunciation of characters: "orca", or speech synthesizer :).

Hey Max.

The short answer is: It depends and I need more specific information if
you want a more specific answer.

In the current (both stable and unstable) versions of Orca, quite a bit
of pre-processing of symbols is done in Orca for MathML. It's not every
last possible symbol under the sun, but quite a few symbols are now
being turned into spoken words by Orca before sent to the synthesizer.
If it's not MathML but just a symbol in the middle of text, it depends
on the symbol. In addition, turning Math-related symbols into spoken
words was done in Orca over time. Thus the older the version of Orca
being used, the more likely it is that the synthesizer must know how to
say the characters.

If you want a more concrete answer than that, I need more concrete
information from you including exact URL, exact line, and exact key
press used.

Hi Joanye.

It uses "RHVoice" Russian speech synthesizer. With "espeak" - everything
works fine.
I've already told him solutions to this problem, but I have a question:
"orca" conveys the characters on "speech-dispatcher" in the form of
words, or in the form in which they are in the text? Ie speech
synthesizer must know how to say these characters, or the pronunciation
is written on the side of "orca"?

Orca is presenting the individual symbols and MathML for me using Orca
master with espeak. What version of Orca and what synthesizer are you
using?

Hello.
Orca is not speaking greek symbols in wikipedia.
