Text to speech
Text to speech (TTS) refers to navigation instructions spoken to the driver by the Waze application.
With the turn instructions override the standard spoken instruction can be altered.
If you encounter wrong pronounciation in Belux, you can report it in Slack channel #63-bl_tts:
Instructions on ramps
To get the required directional TTS for ramps, the sign > is used, which is pronounced as
- in direction of' (Eng) '.
- "richting" (Dutch)
- "en direction de" (french)
Roundabouts
Roundabouts have their own set of instructionsː For a standard roundabout (4 exits) the instruction is Turn left at the roundabout. For other roundabouts, the instruction will be like Take the third exit at the roundabout.
