Please add Greek alphabet (alpha, beta, delta, etc) to symbols.dic. If I use NVDA with Vocalizer, in Microsoft word NVDA doesn't announce the greek letters.

This was originally discussed in #3805. The problem is that we need to do this without breaking the alphabet for Greek language speakers. Currently, English symbols are always inherited for all languages, so just adding them without any other change would cause problems for Greek users.

This is getting more and more related to #6904.

How about adding a checkbox to the interpunctuation dialog which allows you to ignore the patern in symbols.dic? Enabling that checkbox would inherit the pronounciation of the greek letters automatically from the synth itself. All other languages can decide by themselves if they want to keep the pronounciation from symbols.dic, they just have to let the checkbox disabled for the greek symbols.
