# RHVoice English Pronunciation Fixes
This repository contains pronunciation dictionaries for RHVoice's English voices. These dictionaries help correct pronunciation of specific words and names that may not be pronounced correctly by default.
## Contents
- `English/namefix.txt` - Pronunciation corrections for proper names
- `English/wordfix.txt` - Pronunciation corrections for common words
## Installation
### Automatic Installation
Run the installation script:
```bash
sudo ./install.sh
```
### Manual Installation
Copy the English directory to the RHVoice dictionaries location:
```bash
sudo cp -r English /etc/RHVoice/dicts/
```
## Usage
After installation, RHVoice will automatically use these pronunciation fixes when reading text. You may need to restart any applications using RHVoice for the changes to take effect, e.g. speech-dispatcher.
## Contributing
To add new pronunciation fixes:
1. Edit the appropriate file in the `English/` directory
- `namefix.txt` for proper names
- `wordfix.txt` for common words
2. Follow the format: `word=pronunciation`
3. Test with RHVoice
4. Submit a pull request
## License
This project is licensed under the WTFPL (Do What The F*** You Want To Public License). See the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details.
