I use Tom Enhanced and don't find nearly the number of bad pronunciations.

Subject: Interesting discovery with Voiceover, and the Alex voice
Hello everyone,
I have the iPhone 12 mini. I have had it for a few months now. I love it!
Before I got it, I was using the 10 XR.
Anyway, I have noticed something odd. I can't say for certain when I
first noticed it. And I am also not quite sure if it is somehow my
phone, or the Voiceover voice of Alex.
But I have noticed that some words sound odd to me. I can't think of any
examples at the moment. And for this I do apologize. It seems though
that letters sound as though they are dropped. Or that the word is not
written correctly. Now I do tend to mis-spell a good deal, and I have to
go back and correct stuff.
However, the other day i was sending a text with a word in it that ended
in the letters E, D. I can't remember what the word was now, or I would
have just written it. But when I read my text back to make sure it was
correct, I had to view the word character by character, to make sure it
was correct.
It was. But Alex spoke it as though the d wasn't there.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Does it happen with other voices?
I have tried other voices in the past. But I always come back to Alex.
It used to seem clearer to me.
What do you all think?
Any thoughts or suggestions are much appreciated.
Thank you,
Terri
