Now 's voice recognition applications are absolutely amazing, especially in contrast to the viability of those tools when they came out.  IndeedI did have one of those very first IBM voice dictation software programs, and over the yearsI've probably purchased most all of the updates to all of the speech recognition applications available.  It is remarkable how far everything has come, and still, everything is not perfect, and they do often make errors.  Okay so, let's talk about this for a minute, shall we?

 

It is my contention that every speech recognition software application ought to get the job done right out-of-the-box with no instruction, many of these now do.  In fact, if you buy an iPhone, it includes SIRI, which works as is, and it works fairly well.  The newest Dragon Speak Software also works without training, and so also does Microsoft's speech recognition software which is built into its operating system for the speech impaired.  I've been impressed with all of these applications systems.

 

Still, if there is ambient background sound or extra vibrational energy such as a nearby train going by, jet engine sound close to a street, or the proverbial TV on in the background frequently what you had said, and exactly what the applications had written into your word processing application is not anywhere similar to what you'd hoped it'd be.  In fact, as an online article author, and one who is very prolific, I do a lot of writing nowadays with voice applications, including this particular article.Nuance Coupons

 

 And it's hard to determine just what it was I was trying to say it's hard to recall exactly which words I wanted for this sentence if there has been any lengthy period of time between talking and editing.  

 

What I do is this, and this really is a key that you ought to use; I reread this sentence as fast as I can, although it's garbled, and doesn't make sense.  I then read it three times fast, and I listen to myself while I'm talking, and attempt to think about exactly what it seems like after I'm reading it at a very fast rate.  Then it becomes relatively clear that sentence means.  Although completely garbled, when you read it rather fast it does tend to sound like; the specific words you are attempting to state, but that the speech or voice recognition software didn't pick-up correctly.

 

Really, I believe if you'll try this suggestion, it will save a lot of time in editing, and a lot of frustration, it will also keep you from throwing away sentences, or perhaps even entire paragraphs, since you can't get out exactly what they state.  It may also enable you to read something that somebody else wrote, which didn't come out correctly either because perhaps they also were utilizing speech recognition applications at the time of writing everything.  Please think about all this and consider it.
