  <title>Pronunciation Preferences</title>
  <p>
    Sometimes your speech synthesizer just doesn't say the right thing
    for a given string. You might prefer to hear "laughing out loud"
    rather than "LOL," or "accessibility" rather than "a11y". Or there
    may be a name or a technical term which the synthesizer mispronounces.
  </p>
  <p>
     The <gui>Pronunciation</gui> page of the <app>Orca</app> preferences
     dialog allows you to add, edit, and delete entries in <app>Orca</app>'s
     pronunciation dictionary.
  </p>
  <p>
    Because the <gui>Pronunciation</gui> page is also part of the
    application-specific settings, you can customize your entries on an
    as-needed basis for each application you use.
