Actually, I'm the person who started the thread and I have an iPhone 8. I thought it was an iOS 13.4 issue since I noticed it after upgrading to 13.4 but apparently others who have not yet upgraded are also noticing it. I've reported it to Apple Accessibility and will not comment further on the issue since I realize it's minuscule in the scheme of things. However, I personally don't want Voiceover to start mispronouncing words it previously pronounced correctly which seems to be happening with more frequency.

The person who started this topic is using an XR and someone else with the issue had an 8 plus, I have an SE and the only voice that has this issue, minor though it may be, is the Siri Female American voice. No other voices, in VoiceOver, or Siri have this pronunciation qwerk. And if folks running 13.3 are experiencing it with Samantha, then it most certainly is a gremlin that should no longer be fed.

I hate to prolong this thread but I’m wondering if this problem only occurs on certain IPhone models. I’ve seen several posts saying their 8 has this issue & several that mention they have a newer model & do not have the issue. Maybe I missed some emails on this topic. I don’t think everyone who has an 8 needs to chime in but I’d like to hear from anyone who has a newer model & has this pronunciation issue with yesterday. It would go a long way to solving it if the problem only occurred on certain models.

Richard, I had tried modifying my Voiceover pronunciations to customize yesterday to correct this issue without success until I was successful now by spelling the substitution word as yesterday spelling the second syllable as t u r instead of t e r. For some strange reason, this corrects the pronunciation. Spelling the substitution word with an upper case D for day did not change my iPhone's pronunciation of the last syllable as if it began with a t. Thanks for all the responses on this issue which I still find a bit perplexing considering our varying results. But I'll put it to bed now.

Well, for those who are experiencing this, have you tried going into VoiceOver settings, Speech, pronunciation and put in yesterday with the substitution as yester space day to see if it solves the issue, though it may have a bit of a pause in the middle. And, of course, everyone should write Apple, but given how inconsistent it is, I wouldn't hold my breath. Richard "There's a nap for that."
