I've been noticing the "tornado" mispronunciation for years. I just went to the setting for pronunciations and added "tornado", substituting "t o r n a y d o".

--Agreed, mine misprounces tornado in the phrase “tornado warning” it says torado. Not a good mistake to make when you think about it

I am using the default Samantha voice and she mispronounces Holiday Inn also. As you said, it is particular phrases, not just the word holiday. For a long time, when she would see "Arizona Cardinals" she would pronounce it "Arizona Cardotdinals". It got on my nerves so bad I changed it in the default.

It’s weird, she only seems to pronounce it incorrectly with the specific phrase, “Holiday Inn” and not specifically just the word “Holiday.” Sorry, I should have clarified that, as well as the fact that I’m using Samantha’s enhanced voice as well.

Hi,
I'm using Samantha enhanced for my voiceover voice. She seems to mispronounce quite a few words. The one I hate the most is "onto" for the word on-to. But to answer your question, yes she mispronounced the word holiday in your email, but proof reading my reply, she pronounces the word holiday correctly.
Donna
I’m curious to know, has anyone else experienced the issue with Voiceover incorrectly pronouncing “The Holiday Inn” to “The Holli.day Inn?” I can reproduce this on both my iPad and iPhone respectively. I can certainly change it of course, but wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing this same VoiceOver issue.
