Feb 10, 2021Benkin , have you try <phoneme> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/speech-service/speech-synthesis-markup?tabs=csharp#use-phonemes-to-improve-pronunciation to improve the pronunciations?

Hi Benkin , yes Bulgarian for Custom Neural Voice is in our roadmap and we might be able to get to a private preview soon. Please apply to http://aka.ms/customvoice to request for building a Custom Neural Voice and specify you want to build a voice in Bulgarian. If you get approved, we might be able to get you to the private preview list.
