I have trained myself, not without some considerable effort to accept Karen's 
mispronunciations, when she pronounces similar words correctly.  For Instance, 
she will not say chess:  it is always chis, while chest is chest, not chist:  
confess is confess, not confiss.  comedy/comic:  she insists on pronouncing as 
if it were spelled with an a r, not an o m.  We are but pawns:  a piece that is 
to be found in the game of chiss, who must accept what is dealt unto us by a 
dumb robot!!!

Allison speaks any word similar to peace as peas, no matter what you do. 
The US English Siri pronounces those words correctly.
Others do as well I'm sure.
So, if you stick with Allison there is nothing you can do.

  Have you tried spelling the word peace like piece as in a piece of cake? You 
would do this in the pronunciation section in voiceover settings. Maybe that 
would work.

        Hi, all,

    I'm sorry if this has been covered, but this is driving me batty. When I 
hear the word "peace" on my iPhone, it is always pronounced "peas." Now, it 
doesn't matter if I try to change the pronunciation in the correct place in 
Settings. No matter what I do, and I have tried many, many things, it always 
gives me the same outcome. I'm using the Alison voice if that matters. Just 
drives me nuts. When I hear "Lord, please give me peace," I don't want him to 
give me a scoop of veggies, so does anyone have any ideas here?



    TIA,

    Karen
