Please, why does Espeak delete the "H" in phrases like "not have that" - I'm not OK with that.

@Tamasg You can take espeak out of your processing chain and then do whatever you want. Every other synth has its own word to phoneme rules. I can't think of another one that doesn't. It might be difficult if you want to support all those languages, but it should give you a more flexible system in the end.

@tspivey yeah, the language support is the big one, no way to build out so many without extensive rules, although honestly English is the killer and there's already stress dictionary lookup happening, which is really one step away from just outright straight text to phonemes themselves. It's something actively turning around in my head, just not a good comprehensive G2P that doesn't just use ARPANET, which is very archaic. So yeah, huge project, bit by bit
