I’m sure some of you have experienced Siri dictating over CarPlay especially, when she reads off a message where someone said “ugh”, Siri usually says it in a funny way with a snark similar to how a real person would say it in disgust. Now when it reads it after updating to 13.2, she simply says “ugg” (pronounced like the boot company). Anyone else notice this subtle change/issue. It was always hilarious to hear her express it exactly as you would imagine someone saying it. Now it’s boring.

Mine says hmm! On 13.2. Using British voice.

I use Siri to dictate both my incoming and outgoing texts via CarPlay, and I've actually noticed quite a few differences in how she pronounces/inflects certain words and phrases recently. Some of it sounds more natural, and some sounds really awkward. This is the basic US English female Siri. I haven't noticed ugh specifically, I'll have to check it out.
