Hi @Momo2023 ,
Here are two options you may want to try:
1. Add the “pxt-billy” extension, which is for generating speech/voice:
a. Open a new project.
b. Click on the +Extension
c. Paste in the URL: [https://github.com/adamish/pxt-billy](https://github.com/adamish/pxt-billy) , hit Enter, and select the “Billy” tile to add it.
d. Play with it…There may be some combination of voice settings and pronunciations that sound animal-like.
The Billy extension doesn’t have a traditional set of “Help” pages like other blocks, but there is a README that describes what the blocks do and how they work (and provides links to further descriptions) here: [https://github.com/adamish/pxt-billy/blob/develop/README.md](https://github.com/adamish/pxt-billy/blob/develop/README.md) . Here’s an example project: [https://makecode.microbit.org/\_JyCdYrVTM9c2](https://makecode.microbit.org/_JyCdYrVTM9c2)
1. If you’re working with a micro:bit v2, you can try recording sounds:
a. Open the Beta version of the editor: [https://makecode.microbit.org/beta](https://makecode.microbit.org/beta)
b. Click on “+Extension” and add the “audio-recording” extension
c. Use the blocks in the “Record” toolbox to record and play sound back.
Good luck!
