Use Pronunciation Editor to define custom pronunciations of single-word Phrase elements. By default, Speech API (SAPI) provides default pronunciations for all words. These default pronunciations are comprised of phonemes, which are abstract categories of speech sounds (vowels and consonants) grouped together to create words. Use Pronunciation Editor to create custom pronunciations of single words.
