Generally, if the word has a vowel in it it will be spoken as a word,
otherwise, it will be spelled out.
Sometimes the software has a built-in dictionary which comes up with some
weird sayings. The other day I was reading a book and I read: "Sir, may I
see some Indiana?"

It depends on the screen reader software and it depends on the made up word.
Sometimes the word is spelled out and sometimes it follows the pronunciation
rules that are programmed into the software. If the latter you often get
something like garble.
