I’m using the Alex voice on my iPhones and Samantha on my Mac Mini. I must have initially read the originating message on my iPhone because it pronounced the phrase “The Holiday Inn” perfectly.
However, I’m using Samantha on the Mac Mini and as I review this reply I find the phrase is badly mispronounced. Further, I switched to Samantha on the iPhone 8 and realized the same problem. Although I do prefer the Samantha voice, I use the Alex voice to avoid other mispronunciations via the Samantha voice. I do wonder if Apple is aware of this issue! * * * * * * * * * * * * - Bill from Ino, Wisconsin - "Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness." - "Play with abandon. Laugh.
