Thank you for watching this issue.
I'm trying to solve the same word has different pronounces in zh-TW.
I use <phoneme alphabet="sapi" ph=" "></phoneme> , but it returns error.
I refer this page.

    @LucienMJ Apologies for any issues with the usage of words in the below example, I have used this only as a context to check if phoneme works with zh-TW as I am not a native speaker of chinese(taiwan)

    I have used this an example to set phoneme for one of the words from the studio and it seems to work.

    <phoneme alphabet="sapi" ph="ㄧㄚ">家</phoneme>

    My SSML was set as the following:

    <speak xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/10/synthesis" xmlns:mstts="http://www.w3.org/2001/mstts" xmlns:emo="http://www.w3.org/2009/10/emotionml" version="1.0" xml:lang="zh-TW"><voice name="zh-TW-HsiaoChenNeural">客<phoneme alphabet="sapi" ph="ㄧㄚ">家</phoneme>語;</voice></speak>

    Have you tried to use the studio and set the phoneme for zh-TW?
