Training Dragon
NaturallySpeaking to recognize
problem words
If Dragon NaturallySpeaking continues to get the same word or phrase
wrong, it probably doesn’t recognize the way you pronounce it. When
this happens, you should teach Dragon NaturallySpeaking how you say
it. This is known as training the word or phrase.
You can also train any voice command that Dragon NaturallySpeaking
consistently misunderstands.
You can train Dragon NaturallySpeaking in any of the following ways:
■
Train words after making corrections
■
Train words when using Find New Words or Vocabulary Builder
■
Train words from Vocabulary Editor
■
Train words from the Tools menu
■
Train a voice command

Dragon NaturallySpeaking to understand it. Training is the most
effective way to teach the program your pronunciation.
To train a word after correcting it:
