How do I change the pronunciation in Communicator?

Fortunately, you can specify the correct pronunciation:

If the top toolbar is hidden, tap the black line above the Message Area, and then tap the top-right Edit View icon.
Tap the Settings (cog) icon, tap Speech, and then Pronunciation.
Tap Add New.
In the first box, spell the word correctly.
