It is easy on a mac as there is a command line tool called "say". So, something like this (shell-command "say \"Hello\") will say the word Hello out loud. I guess there are windows and linux equivalents. stardiviner writes: > Leu Zhe writes: > > I want org-drill can add a feature to auto pronounce the word.
