4. Enter a pronunciation for the word in the Pronunciation
edit box.
Try spelling the word phonetically using simple
combinations of consonants and vowels. Use spaces to
separate letters if you want WYNN to say the name of the
letter rather than make the associated sound (this is
useful for acronyms).
Tip: You can also use spaces to isolate phonetic sounds created
by two or more letters. The synthesizer clearly pronounces
these sounds when reading the word.
5. Click Test to hear the new pronunciation of the word.
Continue adjusting the pronunciation until you achieve the
desired pronunciation.
6. When you are satisfied with the pronunciation, click the
Add button to update the Pronunciation Dictionary.

Configuring Word Prediction
The Word Prediction feature is useful for people who have
difficulty coming up with words or spelling while writing. It offers
suggestions that complete the word the student is typing, and it
proposes the next word for the student to type. This allows your
students to focus on getting their ideas “on paper,” regardless of
their ability to spell.
