It came to "Mmm-mmm" and spoke it as the letter "M" in very rapid succession ("em em em em em em"). I thought it got stuck for a second! In one book, "New York" was used quite frequently. Every time, TTS would speak it with a very long pause between the two words. In another book, the word "fu**ers" was in the middle of a sentence and it practically shouted the word (with great emphasis). There have been some other interesting ones.

I laughed out loud when I read this. Thanks for that. I have Dragonspeak installed on my computer, and I loved getting a soft woman's voice to read nasty sexist rap lyrics. My son and I would be in tears.
