[NFBCS] Does Anyone Know Why JAWS Sucks at Pronouncing So Many Words?

[Nicole Torcolini]

            Okay, I know that this is not that important, but JAWS cannot
even say Colosseum correctly, not to mention several words that are in the
English dictionary: "I made a quesadilla from a tortilla." (but it can
pronounce Versailles correctly?) VoiceOver on iOS is not perfect, but,
compared to JAWS, it is great, especially when it comes to words/names that
are made by combining multiple words. I have been able to fix a few of the
pronunciations by having JAWS pronounce it in the original language, such as
Audi in German, but that does not always work. I don't expect it to be
perfect, but it should get the more well known ones right.
