Tony do you mean one of the Sapi voices ? or what this list at one time used to sniff at and call Jaws Posh? I wonder if it uses a British spell check? Maybe Vista does? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tonty" <tony.bowers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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.
