Actually, that's not too random--on the whole, herbivores are probably tastier than carnivores.
In English you can say "the book and cat", and it's understood that the "the" refers to both nouns. Can you do the same in Swedish with "boken och katt"?
It couldnt work out that 'car' was a typo? R is directly next to T on the keyboard -_-
I think they have logic in there that counts any real word as a typo if it's not the correct word.
Boken should be pronounced /ˈbuːkɛn/ (BOO-ken), with a b sound. I don't know what the TTS sounds like right now because I can't listen to it, but if it sounds wrong you can report it. [2019/05/08]
Curious, when I play it over my loud speakers it is the expected B sound. Yet oddly when I plug in my headset it sounds exactly like a V. (Same browser and computer). I assume of course it must be the same sound file coming across so it must be something on my end. These two devices have different decoders I suspect so the difference must be there. It may be that the head set driver misses the first few milliseconds when the explosive part of the B is formed. This is actually a problem which is near and dear to me since my last name starts with a V and one must ALWAYS explain over the phone that it is V as in Victory or they will hear it as a B.
