• A pronunciation entry for a name that starts with punctuation (?uestlove, .38 Special) now matches. Taking a soundboard hit out of a script no longer closes every space in front of punctuation elsewhere in it, which had glued such names to the word before them, in the stored script as well as on the way to the engine.
• What a pronunciation entry says now reaches the speech engine exactly as it was written. A respelling with stressed syllables in capitals (UN-guhr) is no longer read as an initialism, and Kokoro's inline phoneme markup ([Jordache](/ʒɔrdæʃ/)) keeps its brackets and slashes.
