There are exceptions (\"say nice things about me\" and \"say what you need to say\" both sound less weird), but for the most part, I think a verb like \"speak\" or \"utter\" sounds more natural.\r\n\r\nAnother approach would be \"Read a message aloud\", \"Read a message aloud with a custom voice and speech rate\", etc. That wording sounds very natural and comfortable to me (though maybe others might not realize I mean \"read\" like \"read a book\" and not \"read a file into memory\").
