Siri’s pronunciation isn’t always spot on, especially when it comes to names, which ranges from annoying to problematic. With iOS 7, however, Apple has made its digital assistant smarter, allowing you to teach it the current pronunciation without having to type in the phonetic spelling manually.
Siri will ask for help if it has troubles with a name or you can simply tell it it’s wrong – ” That’s not how you pronounce <a name>”.
After that you pronounce the name and after some thought, Siri will come back with a couple of options and ask you to pick the one that sounds best.
That’s a feature that Apple didn’t advertise at the iOS 7 announcement during the WWDC, but it reportedly isn’t fully baked yet. Still, this will be very useful for contacts with unusual (in English).
