in reply to Mahid Sheikh • • •Not a good idea. When using Narrator, or NVDA with the Windows OneCore text-to-speech engine, it acts like the thorn isn't there. When using NVDA with eSpeak NG, it pronounces the thorn as "th", but mispronounces some words, e.g. þeory.
Too lazy to switch to my Mac and check with VoiceOver right now.
