Description

Write a first sentence terminating in a period. Start the next sentence with a number, like 23. The two sentences will be read by Personal Voice as one continuous sentence.

This does not occur if the first sentence ends with an exclamation mark or question mark, nor if the number is written as a word, like twenty three.

It also occurs if the first sentence ends in an interrobang (‽).
