void AppendTextWithAlias(

	String^ substitute
)

Parameters

textToSpeak
Type: System::String^

A string containing the text representation.

substitute
Type: System::String^

A string containing the text to be spoken.

This allows a document to contain both a spoken and a written form for a prompt. For example, the written form could be an acronym, such as SAPI, and the spoken form could be the expanded text for the acronym, in this case Speech Application Programming Interface.

The following example appends a text string ("Speech Synthesis Markup Language") and its alias ("SSML") to a PromptBuilder object. The synthesizer will pronounce "S S M L".

Copy 
PromptBuilder alias = new PromptBuilder();
alias.AppendTextWithAlias("Speech Synthesis Markup Language","SSML");
