Wrong action for linguistic abbreviations

[PPTG]

Hi I don't know if this is specifically a software bug but I don't know how to get out of the systuition when the model is supposed to say for example kWh, W and etc, that is units of measurement . Is it possible to somehow indicate to make kwh read as kilowatt hours ? , when I try to parse “kwh” I get unintelligible bushes :)

Check out the pre_process_map.yaml (default file, or a new one created after startup). It contains regular expressions (regex) which can be used to substitute strings, like kwh for "killowatt hours".

Generally speaking this is a weakness of tts systems in general. Unless they're trained how to say all these things it just comes out as the literal text (or gibberish). Ex. "$100B" needs to be translated to "one hundred billion dollars. It's not available in most free TTS yet. The regex workaround is not very satisfactory, quite tedious to maintain, but it's the best solution for this setup.

Great ! Thanks

you don't need to restart the server when you edit the file BTW, it's loaded on demand for every request.
