Adding Words to the Pronunciation
Dictionary
Teacher Exercise Guide
The Pronunciation Dictionary allows you to define how WYNN
pronounces words that it reads aloud. Speech synthesizers do a
good job of pronouncing words through a combination of text-tospeech
programming and internal dictionaries. However, there
may be some words that the synthesizer does not pronounce
properly. These words vary from synthesizer to synthesizer. Using
WYNN's Pronunciation Dictionary, you can change the
pronunciation of any word.
To add a new word, phrase, or acronym to the Wynn
pronunciation dictionary:
1. On the Advanced menu, click Pronunciation Dictionary.
The Pronunciation Dictionary dialog appears.
2. Scroll through the Word List to make sure that the new
text does not appear in the pronunciation dictionary.
3. Type the new word into the Word edit box.
