I often use Hey Siri what temperature is it and it's usually a nice clear sound but over the last week or so I've been getting a stuttering click at the beginning of the speech announcement.

I played around asking Siri other things such as sums and I didn't notice this glitchy click at the beginning so I assumed this was a bug but I finally found the real answer this morning.

I shouted 'hey Siri what Temperature is it' as I was getting up and my iPhone answered and said (and of course showed on screen) 'Brr!, it's -5 degree outside'.. the glitchy click seems to be the Apple Watch trying to say 'Brr!' whilst on the phone it sounds more like a frog saying ribbit.

Tested again with my wife's S3 Nike Sport and exactly the same sound... I was worrying that the speaker was starting to go from all that swimming but this does seem to be just a Siri pronunciation glitch that sounds particularly bad on the watch.
