Writing for the voice
The voice reads what you write. Write every glottal stop (ʼ), every å and every ñ. An unmarked word is read unmarked.
Our linguists mark texts that arrive without them, through pronunciation marking.
English words and names are read in English.
Names in other languages
Starpath reads CHamorro place and personal names inside English, French and Spanish texts, marks intact.

Transcripts
