Talking numbers

I spent a chunk of today recording myself. Something that I always find kind of frightening. My talking Pomodoro timer needs something to say, and that something will be things like “Your have twenty minutes remaining.” I’m not sure how hearing such messages will help with motivation (actually I’m fairly sure it won’t) but it is an interesting technical problem and other folks might find uses for the technique.

You could try using your skill and judgement to work out what message the above sample contains, or I could just tell you that it is “There are fifty four minutes…”.
