(English only) voice model selected. - You set up a pronunciation dictionary consisting of: - The word to be pronounced (e.g.,

) - The phonetic alphabet to use (

ipa

or

cmu

are supported) - The phonetic pronunciation (e.g.,

æktʃuəli

) Example format: [(2) ]()

"word": "actually", "alphabet": "ipa", "phoneme": "ˈæktʃuəli"

Tools to find phonetic pronunciations: [(1) ]() - [IPA pronouncing dictionary tool]() - [CMU pronouncing dictionary tool]() The correct documentation link is: [Add custom pronunciation]() You can also configure the
