[MV] Training words

[Anyse Joslin]

Hello all,

No matter how hard I try, I can't train DD to automatically recognize my name! My name is Anyse with the stress on the last syllable. When I try to get DD to recognize my name, even though I have edited and recorded my name in it to teach it, I still get things like "a Nice" and stuff like that, even though I tell it that it is "uh niece" along with my written name in the teaching part. I teach phonology and I know the difference between the long "a" and the shwa! However, DD can't recognize this at all when it comes to my name. So, I may have to resort to some fantabulous Russian or Thai word to make this work for me. Any ideas?

Thank you.
