Comment(by daTscharlie):

 Replying to [comment:1 jteh]:
 > I assume you mean it spells the word? This is an issue with the speech
 synth being used. Some synths will spell a word if they detect an unknown
 character. Please confirm if this is correct. In this case, there is
 little that can be done on the NVDA side; we should not arbitrarily ignore
 characters because a synth cannot handle them. However, you can create a
 speech dictionary to work around this.

 I'm using IBM ViaVoice SAPI4 version 6.4.1.0 and your work around has
 solved this issue. Thank you very much.
