Hello,

I have a problem when i play the words from my dictionary. The voice synthesis does not work properly - it just “says” all letters.

For instance for the word “sure” it says: S-U-R-E

Ok we figured it out and think we have fix for all iphone/driod users, at least it worked for.

  1. Go to settings
  2. Go to section called “personal”
  3. Scroll down to language input, select
  4. Go to “speech” select "text to speech output’
  5. This where you should be able select the proper voice, male or female voice in the language you are learning. In my case i selected polish and now have the correct pronunciation and accent.

Hope this helps.
