Usually the names of punctuation characters are spoken by the program
which calls eSpeak.
However, you can make eSpeak speak punctuation characters by using its
command-line option:
espeak --punct
Or if you want it to speak only some punctuation characters, you can
give it a string which contains those punctuation characters, eg.
espeak --punct=",.?!"
