Br was built into Samantha as Branch. As soon as Jane took over it was switched to Bridge immediately.DwarfLord wrote:What is the status of Br and Brg?
The big table says "Br" TTSd to "Branch" as of early 2012, while "Brg" TTSd to "Bridge" as of mid-2014. But the table mentions that these TTS tests were conducted prior to "Jane". Meanwhile the latest USA guidance does not mention "Brg", and Validator flags "Brg" as unknown.
If "Brg" has been completely discontinued in the last year and no longer functions at all in TTS, may I recommend that it nevertheless be added to the new USA Abbreviations and Acronyms wiki article as "(discontinued, do not use)"?
It is always helpful, when formerly recommended guidance is withdrawn, that there be some mention of whether it's deprecated or no longer supported at all
Cir was omitted accidentally, I have now replaced it in the wiki list for Jane. Cir does work and is recommended for Circle.mtb2314 wrote:Hi everyone,
I tried searching this thread before posting but it's so huge I couldn't find my answer.
I am seeing two differences between the old Samantha abbreviations page and the newer Jane abbreviations page:
Circle: Cir (Samantha) -omitted- (Jane)
Crossing: Xing (Samantha) X-ing (Jane)
So my questions are, should I remove "Cir" as an abbreviation and replace with Circle? And should I change Xing to X-ing?
Thanks!
Tom
I will bring this to the team and see what they say.TheChrisK wrote:In parts of Wyoming, east-west country roads are named "County Lane XXX" and north-south roads are "County Road XXX". See here for example.
I would like to propose adding the abbreviation CL-XXX to read as "County Lane XXX" similar to how CR-XXX reads as "County Road XXX".
For now, editors are instructed to keep the current format as "Co Ln XXX".
Cheers,
Are you sure it was that exact segment? It's working fine and saying trail when I test it. What was the full prompt was it a right turn left turn etcetera?CBenson wrote:Jane voiced "Trl" as "tee-arr-ell" for me here this morning.

A couple of TTS issues experienced in Canada (waze V3.8.0, Android 4.4.2, Navigation guidance English (US) (Tom)). The Canada Post abbreviation guidelines are what we are supposed to be using as a naming convention. The two issues are:
Full Name Abbreviation
Diversion Divers
Point Pt
Currently the TTS engine states "Divers" and "P T". On the wiki page the Point abbreviation is listed as untested, so I guess it doesn't work...
Thanks,

This isn't really a TTS question both options "Eleventh" and "11th" will be spoken the same by TTS. However for uniformity, simplicity, and the smaller space on the screen it uses, we prefer the numerical digits when the sign is spelled out.G_W1Z wrote:Sorry if this has been discussed/posted before.
I have looked over the standard suffix abbreviations page and am left with a question: should numbered street names which appear on signs as letters be named with a number? Example: 11th Ave in Springettsbury PA (York). In WME (Permalink) it is given the digit name instead of the lettering.
It means we have diagnosed the issue and the fix but are waiting for the backlog to clear for that type of issue before submitting new ones. Most pronunciation issues get sent to the vendor for fixing, so we send a batch, wait for results before sending more.cshinn89 wrote:what does ready to submit mean on the wiki list?
We definitely add ordinals to digits for proper TTS (11th). Whether to convert words to digits I remember being told to, but I guess it may be up to regional preference.qwaletee wrote:Really? I thought we followed whatever street signs said. 11 vs 11th seems like NBD for real estate, and "eleven avenue" sounds awkward to me.
