A question on speakup

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hi again,


For some reason espeakup comes up talking with a rather bad US accent. 
Is there a way to change the "language" without killing espeakup? Every 
time I do so, Speakup will restore my previous settings, which, 
unfortunately includes the bad US voice.


Warm regards,

Brandt Steenkamp
