Amazon Polly, Spelling of special characters

Hello,

When using Amazon Polly, you have some control over how special characters are pronounced through the use of Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML). SSML allows you to specify phonemes for individual characters or sequences of characters.

Certain characters like @ may have default pronunciations defined by the voice but you can override this using SSML.

For characters with no default mapping, you need to specify the phonemes explicitly using the <phoneme> tag within SSML.

Hi,

If you need to really "fine-tune" the pronunciation, you can use the <phoneme> tag of SSML in Polly: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/polly/latest/dg/supportedtags.html#phoneme-tag

But, there is many other possibilities in Polly before this kind of last-end solution: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/polly/latest/dg/supportedtags.html

Best,

Didier
