Accessibility spoken content speak screen not pronouncing words right iOS 16.6 - In listening to Kindle books on my iPhone and iPad, Apple’s speak screen mispronounces words like “much” and ignores periods and other punctuation. Even when I create entry with correction, the word is still misspoken. How do I fix this? I’ve used speak screen for years without this issue.

How to change how an app pronounces a specific language. Latin American Spanish pronunciation. I use an app for learning Spanish verbs called Ella. When the app speaks, it speaks with a Castilian accent. I would like it to speak with a Latin American accent. How do I change it? I currently have no languages on my iPad other than English.
