How do I fix spoken content reading 'small black square' and pronouncing 'LV' as '55' when reading notes?

When using spoken content to read my notes it will say small black square on bullet points and pronounce LV as 55. How do I make it stop that?

Apple support's online article:

Hear iPad speak the screen, selected text, and typing feedback - Apple Support

Eg: says:

"Change how Spoken Content sounds


  1. Go to Settings  > Accessibility > Spoken Content.
  2. Adjust
  • Pronunciations: Dictate or spell out how you want certain phrases to be spoken.


Hope this helps :-)
