C H A P T E R 3 Starting to Dictate
Dragon NaturallySpeaking User’s Guide 27
For a new paragraph, say “ New Paragraph ” run together as one word,
with no pause after “ new. ” For a new line, say “ New Line .”
After dictating a paragraph or two, go back and correct any recognition
errors with the keyboard and mouse, just as you would usually correct
errors in a word-processed document. You’ll learn to correct by voice in
chapter 4, “Correcting and Editing.”
Key tips for dictating
■
Pronounce each word clearly—even short words.
■
Speak all punctuation (“ comma ,” “ period ,” and so on).
■
Say commands without pausing between the individual words of the
command (as if you were saying “
NewParagraph ”). Do not pause
while saying the command.
■
Do pause, however, before and after saying the command.
Commands require a pause before and after the command (“
This is a
test [pause] Select Last 3 Words [pause] Bold That ”). The pauses
enable Dragon NaturallySpeaking ® to separate commands from
words to be typed (dictation).
■ Although talking to a computer is not like talking to a person,
speech with lively inflection tends to be processed more accurately
than speech in a dull monotone. For more tips on how to dictate, see
“Speaking and Dictating” on page 143.
■
Looking at the screen while speaking can be distracting. Try looking
away from the computer as you speak, or close your eyes.
■
To maintain your line of thought, dictate a paragraph or two at a
time. Then go back and correct with what you said still in mind.
■
Drink lots of water. Sipping it through a straw will help avoid
moving the headset and will help keep your microphone in the right
position.
