Hi Tim and all,
This is why that particular solution is not open to me. I read quite a bit
of Italian. I must say, however, that it can be funny when Jaws makes a
mistake and enthusiastically reads English in its best Italian accent. What
baffles me, however, is why I get the British English as little as I do. I
know that there are thousands of people who happily operate with their PC
set for American English, but surely this couldn't account for the fact that
about 98% of my emails are read in the American voices.
Very strange
Colin

Hi,
In the 'text processing option' of the configuration manager there is an
option to "detect language settings". If you un-check this, JAWS will
always use your default language setting, whether you prefer the British, or
US version of english (or for that matter any language you set as default).
The only downside to this is that if you occasionally read web sites in
other languages supported by Eloquence such as German, French, Spanish etc.
JAWS will not be able to recognise web sites which should be voiced in a
language other than your default.
Regards,
Tim Pennick

Hi David,
I get this problem, but have learned to live with it. I find that it occurs
when reading emails from certain sources. I deduce that you hate the
English English as much as I do.
Cheers
Colin

Hi Folks,
Not a serious problem, and I'm sure I have seen it before on here, but is
there anything that can be done to stop Jaws from lapsing into english
english rather than american english? It only occurs rarely, and usually
when accessing complicated websites. It reverts to normal fairly rapidly,
but it can be a little annoying at times. I am using Jaws 6.1.
Any comments?
