I have also found some weird pronunciations. I do get gun as g u n when I am reading in safari, and I just put it in a note and got the g u n.
For me in the Blindfold games the word re-sume is pronounced as resume—like what you do to find a job. It does it in notes, too. Also in the games the word exposed is pronounced as ex-posed with the emphasis on the “ex.” It wasn’t like this before 13.2. I am using Samantha the regular. Very strange!

Any particular book where that punctuation weirdness happens? I almost always use Amy from Ivona with Voice Dream, which is the British female voice, so maybe this too is an American English voice issue?

The other one, where certain punctuation is pronounced "to the power of" appears to be exclusive to VoiceDream. I haven't tried a non-iOS voice to see what happens yet..

I was never able to figure out what text was causing the "to the power of" words to be spoken since those words weren't present. When I switched to another voice in voice Dream, the problem seemed not nearly as bad although that might have been due to the absence of the offending punctuation in that section. Thanks for identifying the source of the strange pronunciation.

Are you having the issue where Voiceover sometimes pronounces certain punctuation as "to the power of"? It seems to happen with certain types of quotation marks and hyphens. On Nov 8, 2019, at 10:02 PM, Richard Turner <richardturne...@outlook.com> wrote: Yes. The fix until someone gets their act together, is to go into the VoiceOver Speech, pronunciations and add gun, the word, which US English voices say g u n, and enter the substitution gunn, which has two n's. I just did that and now gun is said correctly. This for sure started with iOS 13.
