Note: Many of the mispronunciations from Sam are not in the [[Microsoft Sam (SAPI 4)|Speakonia (SAPI 4) version]] originally in Windows 2000, although there are some [[Speakonia]]–only bugs.

==Word Mispronunciations==

==Word Mispronunciations==

Most famously, regardless of version, Sam cannot pronounce the word "soy" (also the spelling "soi"), but instead will make a sound "swurghf", resembling a [[ROFLcopter|helicopter]] blade. In [[Speakonia]] (SAPI 4), one can aid this mispronunciation by typing "soei" or "Swoi" instead, and SAPI 5: "soe" or "ssoy". It doesn't happen in Mary and Mike, meaning this issue seems to be specific to the voice itself. However, he can say it correctly if you type a z after the S. He also says it correctly if a word is placed after it that begins with L or W, such as "soy like" or "soy wheat". Sticky Keys XP has also found an accurate way to make him say it correctly in Windows XP (SAPI 5). To do this, type "sse loi" (s'e loi in SAPI4). However, he says "soil" correctly.
