Please add the ability to have a custom dictionary for Dectalk

[M3198]

Hello,

Hope you are doing well.
In line with your request for separate issues, I'm making an important request for android Dectalk. Please add the ability to add words to the pronunciation dictionary. As you may know, tts engines sometimes pronounce words wrong e.g. Sappi as Saypi. It would be good if the end user could correct this, as well as import/export dictionaries.
The way to do this would be to give users the option to add the word, then after that a replacement field where the correct pronunciation could be added. For example.
Add word - Sapi.
Replacement word - Sappi.

Upper case checkbox not checked. This should be a user customizable toggle.
Save.

First, thank you for creating separate issues, I realize it may be annoying but it really does help us organize and manage requests.

Second, I'd like to request elaboration, how do you want the pronunciation gui to be implemented? Do you want the user to actually type out the new pronunciation in phonemes or do you just want text replacement so that the user can type out what they want it to sound like, your example of sapi to sappi suggests the latter

What I mean is, there should be two edit fields.
One edit field could be add word edit. In this case we're going to assume Sapi.
The next field should be titled, replacement. By replacement, I mean how the actual word should be pronounced. So in the second field, the replacement would be Sappi.
Hope this clears things up.
Best regards,
Muhammad.
