SYNC 3 applies the phonetic pronunciation rules of the selectedlanguage to the names stored on your media player or USB flashdrive. It is able to make some exceptions for very popular artist names(for example, U2) such that you can always use the English pronunci-ation for these artists.
You may be saying the foreign namesusing the currently selected language forSYNC 3.
The SYNC 3 voice controlsystem is having troublerecognizing foreign tracks,artists, albums, genres andplaylist names from mymedia player or USB flashdrive.
SYNC 3 uses a synthetically generated voice rather than pre-recordedhuman voice.
SYNC 3 uses text-to-speech voice prompttechnology.
The system generatesvoice prompts and thepronunciation of somewords may not be accuratefor my language.
SYNC 3 offers several new voice control features for a wide range oflanguages. Dialing a contact name directly from the phonebookwithout pre-recording (for example, “call John Smith”) or selecting atrack, artist, album, genre or playlist directly from your media player(for example, "play artist Madonna").
