Why doesn't Siri recognise me?

[Calvin]

This is going to sound mega stupid but.. does anybody have tips for getting Siri to recognise my voice? I have a welsh accent, and it keeps thinking I'm saying "my" instead of "am I" and crap. :(

don't laugh GoldenMerc;

Can't you get a welsh Siri, or is there a way to change the language it recognises etc? Surely there is because what if african people use siri etc and speak in a completely different language :O


if not, I guess you will have to perfect your posh english :(

I probably will have to! waa

I have a Scottish Accent and I need to pronounce words correctly in some cases so it recognises it. Although the update for Siri has greatly improved this problem, it's the annoying words that catch me out :(

I have a welsh accent

That would be why. As to resolving it, the best you can do is obviously dial down the accent. I wouldn't bother anyway since Siri isn't all that useful.

Just speak slow and clearly, worked for me. I have a scottish accent btw

I started to speak slowly like SackRace suggested and it's fine now. Cheers all :)
