In symbols.dic for SK language on line 21 I read:
"decimal point none always # desatinná čiarka".
this means the decimal point is not pronounced?
No. While there is no pronunciation defined, the "always" means that we
pass the raw symbol to the synth in all cases. The reason we do it this
way is that synths know how to process numbers if you provide the raw
symbol. For example, in English, 1.10 must be pronounced "1 point 1 0",
not "1 point 10", which is what you would get if you defined the
pronunciation and didn't let the synth handle it. There are very few
cases where we do this, but decimal point is one of them.
Of course, this relies on the synth correctly supporting the decimal
point for your language. If it doesn't, this obviously isn't going to
work properly.
