is there a way to force it to just say the letters for anything infront of a number, while still saying any words after the number (example: ref=US 19 Truck - https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/55067239).
Does it do this for you for routes that are *only* state highways, or for ones that are dual-badged US and state highways?
Yeah, a lot of state routes are missing the GA part of the tag; from what I've read (a while back), that is a problem for pretty much all state highways in the U.S. When the routes were imported, only the route number was imported--the state label was not included. I don't know the reason for that. Some folks have been better than others in fixing their state's routes. I periodically try to 'drive through' the state using JOSM and fix those. I also try to change the SR ones to GA; the big problem that I run into with those is where there's a tiny sliver of a road segment that I miss.
The next step for a lot of renderers is to use the relations to render the proper shields for the routes, rather than the text of the ref:

(note that is just some prototype rendering used to display some information about US road names: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-us/2014-July/013388.html )

For that matter, how would I get it to stop saying "semicolon" in the middle of ref and destination tags that have semicolons separating multiple values?--jack
That has nothing to do with Osmand. That's the tts engine implementation. I'm using SVOX with Dutch voice Jan. That one doesn't pronounce semicolons. It brings in a natural, subtile pause like a human voice would do and even changes tone "at the end of the sentence" like a normal human would do.Same for . , :Harry
Jack, what type of Android device are you using anyways? I'm personally using a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 (wifi only) for all my tests as that's the only Android device I have access to. Not once have I had it say 'semicolon'.
