I have a 330 XL-S, The Text to Speech rules are just wrong
It has real trouble with the letter o at the end of a word
San Fancisco is San Fransist Ka, Embarcadero Street is EmbarcaderKa
Others are just as bad. Is there any way to reload the voice rules or
another way to repair this. It is driving me nuts.
Thanks.
 
Other than trying a different computer voice, not much.

Somewhere there is a post referring to the rules used that TT users for the pronunciation of various words. But I don't think it's changeable by the user and it was reasonally convoluted, as I remember.
 
I think your device comes with Vocalizer voices (eg: do you have Samantha as a TTS option?). If so, then check this thread out for a way to change the speech rules.

If your device comes with Loquendo voices (Susan as the TTS option), check out this thread.

The Loquendo voices are used on the newer models, and in my experience are much better at pronunciation than the vocalizer voices.
