The voice does not seem to be able to pronounce the L in “else”. What’s happening there?

Good question. Off the shelf TTS systems tend to enunciate every phoneme more like a radio talk show host rather than a regular person, which I find a bit off putting. I've been playing around with trying to get the voice to be more colloquial/casual. But I haven't gotten it to really sound natural yet.
