This was discussed and addressed before, but the search engine is such that I cannot find the discussion. How can I get DNS 11.5 to write "email" instead of "e-mail" in all its various forms, i.e., email, emailed, emails, emailing, etc.? I think I've killed it the hyphen in a few forms of the work, but I have been able to kill it in all. and there seems to be a difference in dictating the word alone, "e-mail" (oops, there it is), vs. in the middle of a phrase. Another question is. When I tried to dictate "to write", as above, DNS took me to a web site "write.com", and I had to type "to write." How to stop that, alsoIs?

When you are utilising Dragon dictate the following: 'Edit Vocabulary'. In the 'Written Form' type or dictate: 'e-mail'. Then click: 'Edit Properties' Put a tick in: 'Use alternate written form 1' and type: "email" If you wish to utilise the 'Special' & 'Format' buttons for additional options, then do so, and click okay to save your changes to the properties of the word within DNS. Repeat accordingly for each word. When I dictated "to write" it appeared as 'to write', so I suspect this is a problem of your dictation style related your annunciation of this word sequence. I often have problems with certain word sequences; so you are not alone on this one. One solution is to select the problematic phrase and say: 'Train That'. All going well that should eliminate the problem for the future. ------------------------- DNS 12.0 Professional, Windows 7, Intel Core i7 2630QM, 16GB of RAM. Second-Generation SpeechWare 6-in-1. |

James, I don't think that you meant annunciation, did you? That is, you didn't want to make an announcement. I assume that you meant to say enunciation. Chuck Runquist -------------------------

Thank you, brainybanana! That was easy. On one computer, I had removed "e-mail"as a word in the Vocabulary Editor. How to restore it? Didn't know James was a banana, or vis-versa. Something else I learned. |

Chuck, you are correct, that is what I meant! Amusingly, I had just listened to a lecture on the 'Annunciation', and the liturgical significance of said feast day, just observed on 25 March in both the Oriental & Byzantine Orthodox traditions, which explains my error! ------------------------- DNS 12.0 Professional, Windows 7, Intel Core i7 2630QM, 16GB of RAM.
