If may ask, are you using eSpeak?
Shouldn't make a difference, but, you might also want to check if there
are maybe conflicting entries under voice dictionary - unlikely, but,
you never know.
It doesn't seem to matter which synth I switch to, it just reads out
numbers as collections of digits on my PC's.
Last question, did you make sure the replacement pattern had the
trailing space character, and, did you set type to regular expression?
Stay well

It used to work well previously but all of a sudden after we formatted my
computer, it is on strike! Bad nvda behavior, smiles.
Thanks anyway.

You're right, it is the default dictionary, and, sorry, but that dictionary entry
works fine here on my PC..? <smile>

Hi Jacob----------
Thanks for the clear instructions. This worked in the past but no way will it
read digits as numbers instead of words.
The speech dictionary doesn't have a "global" option only "default". I don't
think that should make any difference.

Hettie, in the NVDA menu, go into preferences, speech dictionaries, and hit
enter on global dictionary.
There, tab to add button, and hit space bar.
In the pattern field paste the following:
(\d)(?=\d)
in the replacement field, put the following, including the trailing
space character:
\1
In the comment field, I have the following - just because:
speak numbers as digits
Then tab over to type grouping radio buttons, and make sure regular
expression is selected, then tab over to ok button, and hit space bar
to save the entry, and then tab over to the close button in the
dictionary dialogue, and do the same, and it should now read all
numbers out as single digits.

Hi Jacob and others----------
My apologies for not replying to some of your messages. I still have some
problems with my computer but hope to have it all working soon, no like
yesterday. Has the nvda setting in the dictionary changed to have nvda read
digits instead of readings numbers as words? Please tell me how to do it in the
latest nvda version..
