The Say-it feature enables you to hear the pronunciation of words or phrases.

This option is available only if you have a sound card and speakers installed on your computer.

The Say-it feature is an add-on that can be downloaded and installed separately, if not already installed. This capability  is available for download from Babylon's product features page. When downloading, you can choose to install either a male or female voice. The Say-it voice and pronunciation can be changed from the Babylon-Pro configuration dialog under the ‘Voice’ tab.

Pronouncing terms in the term box

To hear the word or phrase, just click on the "Say it" icon located next to the term box in the toolbar.

By default, Babylon uses the English Text-To-Speech (TTS) engine installed with the operating system. If you wish to hear pronunciation of words in other languages, you need to download and install an additional Text-To-Speech engine. TTS engines for more languages are available for download from Microsoft at http://www.microsoft.com/products/msagent/downloads.htm#sr.
