I've noticed with dictation that using the proper voice enflection works
wonders. For example, at the end of a sentense, with your voice, pause
before starting the next one. When asking a question, make sure your voice
sounds like your asking a question and of course, at the end of a sentense
say the word period or at the end of a question say the word question mark.
The software keeps getting better but you have to do your part as well.
I've also noticed that many people mumble. Perhaps they do it because they
want greater privacy or they don't want people to think their nuts? <grin>
Dictation does require a bit of practice.
HTH!

There are a few keywords you can add for punctuation, but you have to say
them right on the end of the last word, or it gets written as another word.
Things like Comma, Dot, Question, Exclaim.
I say is that YouComma GoodDot.
That looks silly in real writing, but sending a text reading like it is
too. I say the word and the comma in one breath, then pause as you do, and
continue. This work most the time. But practice practice, and check before
you send of course.

Subject: How do I improve dictation with Siri
Hello everyone.
I was wondering, is there a way to improve dictation with Siri, using an
iPhone for S? I love my phone, and I love to use dictation. Especially when
I am texting. I am rather slow at typing, so the dictation works better for
me. Although, I do want to improve my typing skills.
However, a lot of times when I can like to dictate something, the phone
messes up terribly! Sometimes it misses a word up so badly, that people have
to ask me what I meant. The problem is that I don't know how to fix a
message, or email, once it is messed up. Is there possibly a way to make
make dictating easier? Is there a way to get the phone to understand words
more clearly?
If so, how do I go about doing this?
Today, it called my friend Beth, Eric. I don't know how it came up with that
word. I was stumbling either. Sometimes it will call her things like, Bath,
both, booze, and other similar things like that. This I can sort of
understand at least they sound similar.
Any help, or Dutch and suggestions with this, it would be very much
appreciated. Thank you so much!
