Hello list,
I have an iPhone 7 running iOS 10.2 and I'm having a very strange issue adding a word to my customized pronunciations. I believe this is the first time I've added a word since installing iOS 10.2 so I'm curious if others can duplicate it before reporting it. I typed a text message tonight containing the word adamant and noticed that Voiceover pronounced it with emphasis on the last syllable and with a pronounced mant sound as opposed to a mint sound which I prefer. I went into Settings, General, Accessibility, Voiceover, Speech, and Pronunciations and added adamant using the add button in the upper right corner. I typed in the word using the on-screen keyboard just as it's spelled above and then I dictated the replacement pronunciation substitution. I had a very difficult time getting it to place my dictated substitution in the right field which I don't recall being an issue before. If I didn't double tap the substitution field before double tapping the dictate button, I would end up with extra characters in the field for the entered word and adamant would be listed more than once including the pronunciation symbols. I don't ever recall this being an issue with past versions of iOS 10 but I finally figured out to double tap in the substitution field before double tapping the dictate button. I finally was able to get adamant entered in my customized pronunciations and played it back successfully but when I went to my text message where I had used it, the message spoke as if adamant wasn't in it. The word was totally ignored. When I deleted adamant from my customized pronunciations, the text message spoke it again but with the incorrect pronunciation I started with. This feels like a bug to me and I'm wondering if anyone else can duplicate it. I know it's more than a little tedious to try this but I'm very curious if others can duplicate it because I depend on being able to customized pronunciations and want this to work correctly. Thanks for trying to duplicate this issue and reporting back. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
