Text to speech doesn't work perfectly

There are problems with text to speech. If the message is too long, it glitches and only plays part of the voice and then won't continue. Which is annoying, and needs to be fixed. Also, for some reason, if i have no internet connection, there is a possibility that the text to speech won't work at all. Both of these things can break and ruin projects. But the first one is worse in my opinion.

THIS THING NEEDS AN UPDATE-

I LOVE Animal Crossing soooo much! I currently have every Animal Crossing game (including spin-offs) except the ones only in Japan.
I have a bunch of OCs, and most of them are based off my AC characters. However, I also have a (pretend) cat named Toodloo, and he's one of my main OCs(?) as well as Kitty Cat (from New Horizons), KittyCat (from New Leaf) and Meow.
New Leaf and Pocket Camp are my favorite AC games! (although I actually like all of them.) I wish I could have my real self move to the world of Animal Crossing!

Go to AC
define Go to AC
Escape the real world and move to AC
How did you find this? Tell me on my profile!
Anyways, here are some random links that used to be in a place where everyone could see them. I buried them here because I don't think everyone needs to see it.

Text to speech doesn't work perfectly

For some reason, Text to Speech has a text limit, which says partial part of the text, and not the full way. Text to Speech requires internet as well because it doesn't have a built-in text to speech sound, it is stored on their server or their programming language. However, there's an alternative that can say the full thing, here are the examples…
Text to speech: Say [Hello, I speak too much since I am very chatty, I work on Scratch and I help]
Text to speech: Say [projects speak, I am an extension of Scratch, and I'm here!]
// Break up text to say the whole thing...

What if I'm using a list that chooses stuff randomly to say?

You can make another list with the same length that contains the second part of each message. The code for selecting a random message could look like this:
set [message v] to (pick random (1) to (length of [first list v]))
speak (item (message) of [first list v]) :: pen
speak (item (message) of [second list v]) :: pen

Maybe i could try that

I have the same problem. You can fix this by breaking up the long text into two smaller texts.
