Hi @jensjcs
I haven’t been able to replicate that issue. I did a flight with numerous "3"s in it, including runway, frequencies, call signs, altitudes, etc.
Each of them still pronounces it “tree”, but I’ve never heard it say “bound”.
No real idea where to start with this issue. I assume you’ve got the “english” language pack active in window. I guess it could be a conflict with some add-on, but haven’t seen this issue before. Certainly not widely reported.
Regards

can it be, that it will only be in the german sounds?

You should clearly detail In the “Reproduction Steps” section the language setup you are using in order for users/devs to try to replicate the issue.
Also can you provide in the same section an airport/runway you are having an issue with ?
If any, have you disabled all your addons (Marketplace/community) ?
If it was a global issue I would assume issue would already have been reported.

So here i have a short video with the settings and a video with the wrong pronounciation of the word three in german. i hope that will help. i dont have any other tools installed that will interrupt the atc audio in any way.

this issue came after installing SU6.1. before all was ok.

Moved to the Bug Reporting Hub > Language Localization that is more appropriate.
Thanks for the videos & explanation. I still recommend that you update your 1st post title/description/reproduction steps to describe that issue happens when FS language settings are set to German.

Hi.
I have the same problem, but in french.
Instead of saying “trois” (three), the ATC says “arborescence” (tree structure) !
This occurs most of the time, but I have heard a few times “trois”.
I notice that since September.
Regards.
