Random question, but am I the only one who basically uses the same TTS for every language? Like, I'm Hungarian, and I listen to every language written in Latin script with Hungarian eSpeak. English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, all of them. I can't even imagine what it would be like to read English with Eloquence.
Of course, if I'm showing something to people who don't speak Hungarian, I'll switch to a different voice. But for myself, I don't. Obviously, I can't listen to Russian or Greek with the Hungarian voice (although I actually did that with Russian for about a year, until an NVDA addon came out that helped solve the problem), but apart from that, I listen to everything with a Hungarian accent.
I hope I'm not the only one like this 😂

@destranis I switch for longer texts, like an article or a story I want to read. but otherwise… Newfon or Speaking Mouse forever!

@menelion It's so bad I don't understand Newfon. Or well, I do, but only if it's very slow. It's strange because I understand RHVoice at a very fast speed so the problem isn't with my Russian knowledge, it's just my ears can't get used to Newfon.

@destranis It's okay. I know people who don't understand ESpeak. I do, but I can't work with it for long times.
