Yes, it was not correct (not naming names) :) and I corrected it. I agree, it should not matter.

Was north as "en" supposed to be fixed now? Other places seem to be ok recently. This is saying "en" still: http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/06/12/4uhaveqy.jpg

I did not, I only did the manual map tile refresh. I have just done the TTS though. Other ones where this was wrong are ok now though. This was my first one I ran into since the updates. I'll report back if it does it again, thanks!

Jane is mispronouncing "Latta Road" in Greece, NY, as "Landa".

Both A's are pronounced as in "rat". (Jane actually gets this right)

Here's a UR for it, and I can confirm as I drive it frequently.

Interestingly enough it is pronounced correctly when I'm a few miles away from the exit on the local freeway, but it is pronounced incorrectly when I am about to exit.

This happens far from the freeway though. I cringe every time i drive it. ☺

If you give me a permalink to the exact segment it happens with, (Turning from which segment, to which segment) I can test that specific case too.

Sure. I'll drive that way to work this morning and send the exact segment

Is there a way to test without driving?

Yes. You can create directions using the app that travel over the desired segment. Then with Android, you can open the *.tts files with an app like ES File Explorer. Use that app's own player to open them as audio. They are stored in \waze\tts\database\. Then \Jane\ if you're using the Jane voice.

I don't think it is possible to browse such folders with iOS.
Wow, that's awesome! Should this go on the wiki page?
