How can I get 20th to be pronounced "twentieth" no

I am using addresses and I can't find any Docs for how pLum treats this.

The 2,0 spec says to use the intrepret-as attribute of "address" but Plus does not support this.

How can I make this work?

thanks!

link that lists TTS engines used by IVR system

There is currently no definitive list of SSML say-as types specified in the IVR VoiceXML 2.0 or SSML 1.0 documents. The say-as types that are supported by the TTS engines that Plum IVR uses are listed here: http://www.plumvoice.com/docs/dev/voicexml:tags:say-as However, say-as type support varies based on which TTS engine is being used to perform the synthesis.

The Cepstral Swift TTS engine supports the use of the "number:ordinal" say-as type which reads

Code: Select all

<say-as type="number:ordinal">20</say-as>
as "twentieth".

Plum IVR currently uses the AT&T TTS engine in the US and the Ceptral Swift TTS engine in the Europe.
