Can't pause or stop the voice until it finishes it's passage. Cannot control read speed or voice pitch
by Joseph Amir, 2020-08-27

I can not select the voice of the person i want to listen to. Because I have many from IVona voices. But it chooses the first one from my installed voices, and this first voice on the list is broken. How can I change and choose another voice? Also I would like to ask if there are any voices in Greek Language as well. Fix this because I can not test it to see if this works or not, and I will change my rating with more stars.

Adding this for my dyslexic son, who often just needs to quickly hear a word when it's too difficult to read. This is the only pronunciation extension I could find that doesn't open another tab or something. Just pronounces the word, and lets you move on with what you're doing. Perfect!
