Error on English (UK) - Kate pronunciation

Post by abc1357
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.

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.

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 :?:

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)
