Including hyphens as you dictate
To hyphenate words that Dragon NaturallySpeaking doesn’t hyphenate
automatically, just say “hyphen” wherever you want a hyphen.
You can hyphenate words you just dictated with the command “Hyphenate That.”
Select the words you want to hyphenate and say “Hyphenate That.” If you say this
command when no words are selected, Dragon NaturallySpeaking will usually
hyphenate the last few words that you said.
Removing hyphens
You can remove a hyphen by selecting it and replacing it with a space.
To remove a hyphen:
1
Say “Select hyphen.”
2
Say “Space Bar.”
Preventing hyphens
You can prevent Dragon NaturallySpeaking from entering a hyphen by pausing
where the hyphen would normally be.
For example, to type “long lasting” (normally hyphenated) say “long,” then pause for
a moment, and then say “lasting.” Or you can say “long space bar lasting” without
pausing, to insert a space in place of the hyphen.
Dictating compound words
Dragon NaturallySpeaking joins compound words (such as “notebook”)
automatically, based on standard usage. To dictate a compound word, just say it as
you normally would.
