Add a Project-level Special Instructions/Cheat Sheet for Audio Description service requests in order to inform the pronunciation of the synthesized speech output for words that are not easily researchable and for how acronyms should be pronounced. (See step 5 on how to add Special Instructions to a completed file)
Please include the word as it is spelled and the equivalent for how the word should be pronounced like the following examples:
| Word as spelled | Word as pronounced |
|---|---|
| Über | oo-ber |
| WYSIWYG | wizzyWig |
Please note that your phonetic spellings do not need to be exact but should generally inform how you would like the word pronounced.
In addition to phonetic pronunciation preferences please include any preferences for how the people and other proper nouns that appear in your content should be identified in the audio description track.
Note that all Audio Description requests made within this project will automatically incorporate the information from this cheat sheet.
