List of words the Microsoft speech engines can't say correctly

__NOTOC__
There are several glitches with Microsoft Sam, Mike, Mary, Anna, David, Hazel, Zira, Mark and Eva, some of which that cause them to pronounce words incorrectly. Following is a list of glitches that have been found.
Note: Many of the mispronunciations are not in the SAPI4 (used for Speakonia) version originally in Windows 2000, although there are some SAPI4 - only bugs.
==Word Mispronunciations==
Most famously, regardless of version, Sam cannot pronounce the word "soy" (also the spelling "soi"), but instead will make a sound "swurghf", resembling a helicopter blade. In SAPI4 (Speakonia), one can aid this mispronunciation by typing "soei" or "Swoi" instead, and SAPI5: "soe", "swah", or "ssoy". It doesn't happen in Mary and Mike, meaning this issue seems to be specific to the voice itself. However, he can say it correctly if you type a z after the S. He also says it correctly if a word is placed after it that begins with L or W, such as "soy like" or "soy wheat". Sticky Keys XP has also found an accurate way to make him say it correctly in SAPI5. To do this, type "sse loi" (s'e loi in SAPI4). However, he says "soil" correctly. For instances where Microsoft Sam makes a popping noise, try adding a pause. For instance, "just, don't" will fix the popping sound with "just don't". On SAPI4, "AaaaaaaaaaaaaAAaaaaaaaaaaaaAAaaaaaaaaaaaaAAaaaaaaaaaaaaA" makes Sam make a "hurgh" noise at the end.
===Numbers===
*2, too and two: in davemadson's old videos, Sam pronounced it like t'woo.
*2NE1: Microsoft Sam, Mary and Mike pronounces it as "2-northeast-1". This can be fixed by spacing the characters (as "2 N E 1").
*5. (5 dot): Both versions of Microsoft Sam make a popping sound at the word "dot", if it is preceded by a 5. To rectify this, type "5, dot".
*6ix9ine: Microsoft Sam says "six-ix-nine-nin" in the SAPI5 version. He will say the name correctly if you type "Six Nine".
*8bit: If you type this in a lot of times, Sam will say "8 billit"
*8. (8 dot): SAPI5 Microsoft Sam makes a popping sound at the word "dot", if it is preceded by an 8. To rectify this, type "8, dot".

*Arabic: Microsoft Sam will say "Erarbic" (This happens with other SAPI4 voices). SAPI5 Sam will say "ah-ra-beak".
*Arapaima: Sam pronounces it correctly in the SAPI5 version, but the SAPI4 version pronounces it as "errarpayma".
*Arceus: He pronounces it as "Ar-see-us" as opposed to the official pronunciation "Ar-kee-us". When he pronounces the r, it sounds like he's blowing a raspberry before saying "seus". To rectify this, type "R Key us".

*Ariana Grande-Butera: Sam will say "Air-riana Grand-Byooteruh" in SAPI4.

*Awesomesauce (one word): SAPI4 Microsoft Sam will say "Oh-sama sauce". Oddly enough, typing "Osam sauce" will make SAPI4 Microsoft Sam say "awesomesauce", or "awesome sauce".
*Aznguy.mp4: All voices will say "A-Zunn-guy.mp4" To make them pronounce it correctly, type "Asian Guy.mp4," (Because according to Erich Nguyen (aznguy.mp4) says in this video (uploaded on aznguy.mp5 (his second channel)), That That's How you pronounce it, and then Shows you a video of King Liang (Plainrock124) Pronouncing it "a z n guy.mp4.")

*Creepypasta: In the SAPI4 version, Microsoft Sam will say "creep ya pasta". Microsoft Mike and Mary will say "creep a pasta". In the SAPI5 version, they will say "creep i pasta". Microsoft Zira and Anna says it correctly. This can be fixed by typing "CreepyPasta" (SAPI4) or " Creepy Pasta" (SAPI4/5).
*Crotch is said as "crow's nest", with the correct pronunciation realized if "krotch" or "crottch" or "crotche" or "ccrotch" or "crotchh" or "crrotch" or "crrottch" or "ccrotchh" or "crottch" or "krottch" or "krotche" or "kkrotch" or "krotchh" or "krrotch" or "krrottch" or "kkrotchh" or "crottche" or "ccrotche" or "crrotche" or "crrottche" or "ccrotchh" or "crottche" or "krottche" or "kkrotche" or "krrotche" or "krrottche" Is typed instead in SAPI5.

The same error is made by natural (SAPI5) Microsoft Mike and Microsoft Mary. Crotches and crotchs is said as "crow's nests", crotchy is "crow's nesty", crotcher is "crow's nester", crotching is "crow's nesting", and crotched is "crow's nested".

*Davemadson: In the SAPI4 version, Microsoft Sam, Mike and Mary will say "Davuhmadson". In the SAPI5 version, it is said as "Davmadson". Seperating the "dave" and "madson" (SAPI4/5) or typing DaveMadson (SAPI4) can fix this. Microsoft Zira, however, pronounces it correctly (Without seperating it).

*Typing in a four digit number will separate the tens (e.g. we pronounce 12:34 as "twelve thirty-four"). Anything above 5 digits and below is pronounced correctly, i.e., 54143 is pronounced "fifty-four thousand one-hundred forty-three". Four-digit numbers are pronounced correctly in SAPI4, however.
*Typing in "0000" results in Microsoft Sam saying "hundred" (he pronounces each digit separately in SAPI4, however, and first and last digits have snapping sound).
*If a word has an apostrophe in the pronunciation, then the SAPI4 version of Sam will increase the pitch.
*If any words not in the Lexicon are in capital letters, then Sam just says the letters in the SAPI5 version, but not in SAPI4. If there are two letters on parenthesis, then Sam will say only the first letter.
*Many words that have different spellings for British and American English have the British spelling mispronounced, e.g. favourite becomes fav-o-rit. This occurs in the SAPI4 and SAPI5 versions.
*Anything with a dollar sign is pronounced as letters in the SAPI4 version.
*Round times that occur on 24-hour format (13:00, 14:00, etc.) are pronounced as 13 hundred dollars, 14 hundred dollars, etc. (the word "dollars" is actually "hours" mispronounced)
*A number followed by ² or ³ (for example 2²) is pronounced e.g. 2 superscript 2 in Microsoft David and Zira, as well as SAPI4 voices. SAPI5 Microsoft Sam, Mike, Mary and Hazel correctly say 2 squared.
*Special characters in SAPI5 Microsoft Sam, Mike, Mary and Anna: ú, ù, û, ü they will pronounce v each; ⁴, ⁵, ⁶, ⁷ and ⁸ are said as their base numbers in these four voices, ⁰ (superscript 0) is treated as a degree sign, while ⁹ is ignored; probably treated as ’.
*⁰, ⁴, ⁵, ⁶, ⁷, ⁸ and ⁹ are ignored in Microsoft David, Zira and Hazel.
*In the SAPI4 voices, ⁰, ⁴, ⁵, ⁶, ⁷, ⁸ and ⁹ are treated as a question mark.
*2^2 is failed to be pronounced correctly by any voice! Mispronunciations include: two circumflex accent two, two caret two, two cap two, two—two, and, of course blah.
*If Sam says a letter and a word after saying any word that ends with the suffix -fy, followed by the word "as", he will say the suffixed word in a somewhat southern drawl. For example: "I Identify as a WTF Train" is said as "I Identifah as a WTF Train". This was fixed in the SAPI5 version.
==Sound effects Microsoft Sam can make==
*Typing in "lolololololololololol" causes Microsoft Sam to make a sort of "glug glug" sound.
*Typing in "tce tce tce tce tce tce tce tttttttttttttttttttttttte" causes him to imitate the sound of an impact sprinkler. (In SAPI4, type axxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Anna sounds like an electronic type sound with this glitch.) The tce or the tttttttttttttttttttttttte glitches do not work on David, Zira, Mark or Eva.
*Typing in "spspspspspspspspspspspspse" also causes him to sound like a sprinkler. These also do not work on Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 voices.

An example is "p'p'h, t't'very k'k'good t't, p'p'h, t't'very k'k'good t't, p'p'h, t't'very k'k'good t't'very p'p'good t't'very k'k'good t't, " at speed 200.
* Typing in "grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" causes Microsoft Sam to sound like a pirate
==Other things Microsoft Sam can make==
*Microsoft Sam (Speech Articulation Module) will say things faster and lower pitched by putting things in parentheses, square brackets or curly brackets. In SAPI4, the lower pitch is still there, but not the faster speed.
*Oddly enough, Microsoft Sam (Windows XP version) will spell out any text that follows a dash. For instance, if you make Microsoft Sam read "-Bob", he will pronounce it as "B o b", rather than "Bob". Speakonia Microsoft Sam does not do this.
==Trivia==
*Q has the least glitches, only having 5.
