I totally and completely agree with you here. The screen-reader's job is to
read the contents of the screen, not to interpret it into something entirely

Hello Sarah
The point here, even if you can modify the pronunciation dictionaries is that
you shouldn't have too. The screen-reader should read what is present on
screen not what somebody else thinks was meant.

With all due respect, that isn't entirely true. There are some things which
are hard wired into the voice application and you can't change them.

That's precisely why interpretation should not happen. The screen-reader
should read what's on screen and not what it thinks is meant by something.
Sure, give the user the option to change it if they prefer. But don't force
these abbreviations on us.

Hi.
I can not find my logins as I could in snow leopard. I had a great menu, I do

Exactly. I think we should all just interpret how we read thing.s after all is
that not what the sighted person does? and besides, we can get rid of the
things in the dictionary and start afresh. We can bug apple about it but I
really don't thnk ti will work this time around.
Take care all.
