A quotation from La Rochefoucauld

As great minds can express much in a few words, so small minds have the contrary talent of talking a great deal without saying anything at all.
 
[Comme c’est le caractère des grands esprits de faire entendre en peu de paroles beaucoup de choses, les petits esprits, au contraire, ont le don de beaucoup parler, et de ne rien dire.]

François VI, duc de La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680) French epigrammatist, memoirist, noble
Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales [Reflections; or Sentences and Moral Maxims], ¶142 (1665-1678) [tr. FitzGibbon (1957)]

I have a somewhat urgent question for everyone involved/using the IBMTTS/Eloquence on #NVDA #NVDASR.
I'll be writing final exams in one month, on a clean computer provided by my school. They refuse to get the voice on there, as it is not legal, and my principal complained about internet requests the driver would make. Is there a way to get the eloquence voice in a different, legal way? Don't mind the price. Can you, for example, use the voice data from Jaws somehow? I'd really appreciate answers. Thanks

Does anyone have the #eloquence 6.1 dlls with Korean and Japanese support? I can't use 6.6 in this context because it needs to be portable and so I can't register the dll files. #nvda #screenreader #a11y Maybe @Tamasg perhaps?

@mcourcel Now that is truly fascinating. #JFW running #Eloquence elongated the r for a spell and then inexplicably switched to saying r ' r ' r ' I wonder why.

#17 – Jeanne Perrien – Auto-ce...

Just updated my NVDA and Eloquence driver. Anyone know how to stop it from reading things with periods before commas as "hello dot," rather than just "Hello.,"? Upgraded from NVDA 2023 to the latest.

#NVDA #IBMTTS #Eloquence

what are the architectural differences between the iBM TTS and the #NVDA #Eloquence addon? and, in regards to versioning, is everyone here, legal or otherwise, are mor or less using the final version of eloquence?

Anyone knows what are these different dictionaries in the #Eloquence #tts settings in #iOS? Abbreviations, community dictionary and phrase prediction? #Accessibility #Blind

A quotation from Emerson, Ralph Waldo:

«
Eloquence is the power to translate a truth into language perfectly intelligible to the person to whom you speak.

A quotation from Joubert, Joseph:

«
We find a book eloquent not only when it forms our emotions, but also when it fortifies our opinions.
 
[Nous trouvons éloquent dans les livres, non-seulement tout ce qui augmente nos passions, mais aussi tout ce qui augmente nos opinions.]

A quotation from Colton, Charles Caleb:

Were we as eloquent as angels, yet should we please some men, some women, and some children much more by listening than by talking.

Just throwing this out there, given that the #OrbitSpeak is now being delivered to those who ordered it, I'm wondering if anyone has tried to install anything on it through an APK or through ADB? I'm particularly interested in Eloquence and any software licensed either through the Amazon or Google software stores, since the unit is, after all, an Android device. Boosts would, of course, be very much appreciated. #blind #braille #Eloquence #TTS

"She thinks things out and I like that...

"When I hear her talk, she talks eloquently and that makes a big difference to me."
-- Dolly A. in a Wisconsin voter focus group.

"Thinking things through" means critical thinking.

"Eloquence" means NOT talking stream-of-consciousness at a 5th grade level

Which candidates do you think does or does not do these things?
