Error on English (UK) - Kate pronunciation

Map Editors Community United Kingdom

Hello,
I am working on a UR placed in the US from a reporter who says that English (UK) - Kate pronounces “A Street” as “A Why Why Street”. Who/where do I report this so that it can be placed on the list of pronunciations to be fixed?

Thanks.

Here is a good start, Kate does seems to have her own style with pronunciation so isn’t a surprise.

Would you have a permalink to the segment(s) or details of the street so we can investigate :?:

Here’s the segment: https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lon=-122.08097&lat=37.67488&zoom=7&segments=84187169

When I listen to the street name being pronounced in English (UK), the voice (Thomas?) does say “A-Why-Why Street”.

You could use the ‘Report a Problem’ link under the ‘Play Sound’ button if no one else here can identify the issue. Takes you to a Google Form (TTS Pronunciation and Abbreviation issues)

Thank you for the suggestion. However, since this problem is reported in the US, when I select the “Report a Problem” link, it opens up the problem report form for “English (US) - Jane” who pronounces the street name correctly.

That’s the reason why I opened up this forum topic as this appears to be isolated to “English (UK)” voices - both Kate and Thomas.

Edit: I changed my WME Language from US English to English (UK) and I did get a different problem report form. I’ve submitted the problem. Thank you.
