  hi,
  not stupid at all,but it is relatively easy if i can remember, open the jaws 
file menu and go to synthisiser language  sub menu arrow right and you will 
find differnt languages  british english i think is the first one you down 
arrow to ,either way when you find it hit enter on it and then alt space  and 
arrow to minimise and hit enter it will then speak in english british english 
that is unless of course  you are useing a hardware synthisiser and if that is 
the case then i aint got no idea lol,hth,
  tony

    Hi, please ignore this if someone's answered it already but I seem to be 
stuck with the American pronunciation of almost everything.  Sorry to be so 
dense but how do I get to wherever it is the options are for choosing British 
English?  Realise this is probably dreadfully stuipid question but hope you 
will humour me.

    Cheers

    Amie

        Hello

        Have been trying to get JAWS to pronounce status with the English 
rather than US pronunciation without success. Can anybody suggest the right 
combination of letters and spaces etc.

        I understand how to use the dictionary itself but have not been able to 
hit on the right "formula" for this particular word.

        Thanks.
