How do get Siri to pronounce a name correctly?

How do I get Siri to pronounce names and other words correctly? All the support sites direct me to methods that no longer work. I can’t get either the phonetic or pronunciation field in Contacts to do anything at all.

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15

Hi, dougster1, and thanks for reaching out. We see you have some concerns with how Siri pronounces words. We'll be glad to provide some info.


We see you came from If "Hey Siri" isn't working on your iPhone or iPad


There isn't an option to change how Siri pronounces specific words. From here, we'd recommend providing feedback on how this process works: Apple Feedback


We hope that clears things up.


Cheers!
