1. Bring up the JAWS context menu.
2. Down-arrow twice, and right-arrow once.
3. Down-arrow once, and right-arrow once.
You are now in the Synthesizer Language Submenu, from where you choose your
language.

Dear list,
Sorry the following turned out so long, but do need help!
Being interested in learning German, I found a couple of web sites that look
promising. I thought, though, that before down loading anything I should check
to see if Jaws would be able to read that language properly when it appears on
the screen. I went to Jaws 6 which is on my desktop, entered, which brought up
the context menu. I entered on open; found language, and entered, found two
items: Jaws language, which as I remember contained American English, English,
and Spanish. (sorry this is getting so long)! closed that, and on the
previous list found, language synthesizer. Entered on that, and lo and behold
found a long list of foreign languages including German. Entered on that dis
covered it did a really good job of reading everything in my computer with a
almost un-understandable German accent; but did a beautiful job with some real
German I typed in.
Now the problem. I couldn't turn off the German talk!!! I tried everything
I know-which isn't very much; including reboot, complete turn off. German was
still there when computer turned back on. Finally after a couple of hours, and
an over-night rest and turning on computer again, and some more piking around,
German disappeared and English Jaws returned. My question finally is, what
should I do to close down the use of German and returning to English?
