brazil and portugal are swithed

[Nelo REis]

the voice of Portugal belongs in Brazil and vice versa. they are both Portuguese. but different accents and they are switched. the sound ok. just switched.

I don't think this is wrong in eSpeak. If you think there is an error in eSpeak, please give more detailed information about how you chose the "voice of Portugal".

The eSpeak voice "pt-pt" speaks European Portuguese and the voices "pt-br" and "pt" speak Brazilian Portuguese.

Does the same happen if you run espeak like this from the terminal?

espeak -vpt-br "This is Brazil"

espeak -vpt-pt "This is Portugal"

We'd like to figure out what's causing this bug for you, but we haven't heard back from you in a while. Could you please provide the requested information? Thanks!

[Jonathan Duddington (jonsd)]

I have not had any similar comments from other users.
I need more specific information, including example words which sound wrong, together with the correct Portugal and Brazil pronunciation. If not, I'll close this bug report.

Confirmed by Bruno Ruviaro on espeak-general@.

[Siegfried Gevatter (rainct)]

Actually, I can't reproduce this problem; "espeak -v pt 7" and espeak-gui set to "Brazil" give the same result (same for "espeak -v pt-pt 7" and "Portugal").

Can you please try whether you still experience this issue with python-espeak 0.4 and espeak-gui 0.3? (I'm using them with espeak
1.45.04-1ubuntu2 on Ubuntu Oneiric).
