Classification:Serious Bug Reproducible:YES
 
Summary:
On iOS 9.3 b1, if you ask it to speak out the sentence, "We have approximately 16 min remaining", it pronounces it as "We have approximately miles remaining". On iOS 9.2, it says it properly as "We have approximately sixteen minutes remaining". I experience this issue in our app first, but reproduced the same results in the Notes app with voiceover on to test.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open notes app.
2. Type in "We have approximately 16 min remaining"
3. Turn voiceover on and open the notes app and listen to the string typed in step 2.
4. Hear results.

Expected Results:
It should say/pronounce it as "We have approximately sixteen minutes remaining".

Actual Results:
It says "We have approximately miles remaining"

Version:
iOS 9.3 (13E5181f)

Notes:


Configuration:
iPhone 6S, 64 GB, Verizon

Comments

If you type "7.3 mi" it says "7 miles" instead of "7.3 miles". This issues doesn't exist when you type out "mi" as "miles". Typing a number (not letter, or symbol) then a space with "min" or "mi" seems to cause this. Abbreviations like "ft", and "m" seem to work fine.
