Compounding words as you dictate
To compound words that Dragon NaturallySpeaking
®
doesn’t join
automatically, just say
“No Space”
between the words.
You can also dictate consecutive words without spaces by turning “no
spaces” on and then turning them off when you’ve finished.
To dictate consecutive words without spaces:
1
Say
“No Space On”
to turn spaces off.
2
Dictate the words you want to appear without spaces.
3
Say
“No Space Off”
to turn
spacing back on.
Compounding words later
You can compound the last words you said or compound selected words
by saying
“Compound That.”
This command removes all spaces between
selected words. Or, if no words are selected, it removes all spaces in the
last utterance. Any tabs or line breaks are also removed.
To compound words:
1
Select the text you want to join. For example, if you want to join the
words “Web TV,” say
“Select Web TV.
”
2
Say
“Compound That.”
Dictating names
Many names of people, places, and events are already in the Dragon
NaturallySpeaking
®
vocabulary. For example, you can dictate “
Martin
Luther King,
” “
New York Times
,” and “
San Francisco
.” Just say the name
and Dragon NaturallySpeaking
®
will type it. Dragon NaturallySpeaking
®
automatically capitalizes the names it knows, so you don’t have to say
“Cap.”
