Mp3 audio translation Problems

 It's a strange problem but everywhere in the Urantia book that has uppercase, the Google text to speech system spells out the characters instead of converting them to a spoken word.

So now, I'm going to go through all the translations again, in all 15 languages, and recreating all those sentences that have all uppercase character of those words. That means going through all those languages again, but that should be easy to do with Anthropic's AI system. Just a matter of money. Considering, it cost me 150.00 per translation, at least, it will be only the sentences that have uppercase in them that need translating. So that should be a lot more reasonable. So 150.00 x 15 = 2250.00. I'm guessing that it should be less than 125.00 for all 15 translations. 

From now on I'll have the text lowercased when I get Google to do the translations, even though Google says it has fixed the problem.
