Emacspeak and unicode

[Lubos Pintes <lubos.pintes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
I am trying to develop an SAPI-based Emacspeak server for Windows.
It is not ready yet, I only have something very basic to play with.
I would like to ask, how Emacspeak handles unicode characters?
If I am typing on keyboard national characters, Emacspeak speaks, for 
example, "latin small letter c with caron ".
This is copied verbatim, I am logging all commands Emacspeak sends to my 
server for possible later analysis.
The character description is correct, but my synth is able to handle the 
character as-is, I don't need a description. Even worse is that when I 
open any text file, national characters are pronounced like above i.e. 
"with caron" etc.
Is this because Emacspeak is too "american-centric", or do I have a 
problem with various encodings?
I am using Emacs 24.5.1 and fairly fresh Emacspeak from Git.
Thank for any clarification.
