I dont use TTS cos the pronunciation is so bad that it becomes distracting. I tried all the available voices.

One of our forum members uses it as a source of amusement.

You really want to know?

Jalan Kebun Bunga is pronounced as Jalan Keh Bun(the confectionery) Bunga (as for Bunga-low)

Lorong Air Terjun = Loh Rang Air(the stuff we breath) T E R J U N (spelt out in letters).

Enough?

or

Turn Right At Jlan Ess Ess Quarter A to mean Jalan SS1/4A. (by one of our Bro here)

or

you tama to mean Utama
