It could be useful to have an option such as "whole word" in the speech dictionary. The interpreted prononciation would be changed only if the word is not a part of another word (the matches but not theater, for instance).

I know that this can be done via regular expression, but the resulting regexp is not really intuitive. Furthermore, I think that regular expressions are slower but I'm not positive.

Hi,

I've received several requests from the Portuguese list about his. Unfortunately, it's so difficoult to add a dictionary entry without affecting other words. I think this is an important thing.

On the other hand, we already can use regular expressions in the dictionary. What I suggest is just some option that would create a new regular expression (this 'whole' word matter can be tested through regular expressions). If the checkbox is checked, then the system converts the word to a regular expression, adding what it needs to test if the expression is a word. Well, it sounds possible, anyway.
