You'd need some kind of TTS implementation, e.g. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Firefo … to_speech)

For unicodes/unrecognized glyphs you need to install and use a font with good glyph coverage, noto is a family that generally contains everything: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Fonts#Families

Which website, link to a screenshot of what you are seeing. And for the makepkg failure, post the entire output you get: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_o … n_services

Also discussing two completely unrelated topics in the same topic is confusing, decide which of the two issues you want to handle here and open a new thread for the other one.
