# Pronunciations

> Fix mispronounced words with one-click regeneration, or define a pronunciation lexicon for consistent handling of brand names, acronyms, and technical terms.

Section: Docs › Voiceover

There are two ways to fix how the AI voice pronounces words: **regenerating audio** for quick one-off fixes (available on all plans), and the **Pronunciation Lexicon** for systematic control over specific terms (Team and Enterprise plans).

## Regenerating audio

Sometimes the AI voice mispronounces a word or generates an awkward-sounding sentence. You can fix this instantly by regenerating the audio for that specific sentence:

1. Right-click the sentence in the script

2. Select **Regenerate audio in selection**

3. The AI produces a new take — which often resolves the issue

This is available on **all plans** and doesn't require any setup. Use it whenever a sentence doesn't sound right.

## Pronunciation Lexicon

For words that need to be pronounced correctly **every time, across every project** — brand names, technical terms, acronyms — the Pronunciation Lexicon gives you systematic control.

> **Note:** Pronunciation Lexicon is available on the **Team** and **Enterprise** plans.

### Accessing the lexicon

Open the **Pronunciation Lexicon** panel on the left side of the interface and select **Add Languages**.

Add the languages you'll use in your projects to customize pronunciations across multiple languages.

### Adding a new entry

1. Click **New Pronunciation**

2. Enter the **written form** — the word or phrase as it appears in your script

3. By default, entries apply to **all AI voices**. You can override for a **specific voice actor** by adding the same entry and selecting a different voice from the dropdown.

### Defining the respelling

Specify the phonetic or **Respelling** form — how you want the word to sound.

After saving, the pronunciation updates across **all projects** in your workspace automatically.

### Multi-language pronunciations

Add pronunciation entries for additional languages to ensure terms sound correct when you [translate your video](https://www.tutorial.ai/docs/translation/one-click-translation).

The same term can have different respellings per language — the AI uses the correct one based on the video's language.

### Previewing pronunciation

After saving an entry, click the purple **Play** icon to hear how the AI will pronounce it. Confirm the respelling sounds correct before publishing.

### Workspace scope

Pronunciation lexicons are **specific to each workspace**. Each workspace maintains its own entries and languages. If you move projects between workspaces, you'll need to recreate the lexicon — entries don't transfer automatically.

### Common use cases

| Type | Example |
|------|---------|
| **Brand names** | "QIAgen" → "Kee-ah-gen" |
| **Product names** | "QIAcuityDx" → "Kee-ah-cue-ity D X" |
| **Acronyms** | "SAML" → "sam-uhl" |
| **Technical terms** | "kubectl" → "koob-cuttle" |
| **People's names** | "Szőke" → "Suh-keh" |
