Hints: Properly Correcting Dragon Misrecognizations

Correcting misrecgnizations is important to increase the accuracy of dragon.

When Dragon misrecognizes something you dictate you can correct it by saying the command "Correct That".   You can also say "Correct <xyz>" where <xyz> stands for the text you want to correct.

This will display the Correction Menu, which shows a list of alternatives.

If what you intended to say is on the list say "choose" followed by the corresponding number: for instance "Choose 1."

You can also say "Spell that" to open the Spelling window, where you can spell out or type what Dragon should have recognized.<xyz>" where <xyz> stands for the text you want to correct.

However, be warned, using these techniques in an LSS window can result in Dragon not responding when you dictate.  When editing in LSS, after calling up the correction menu, use the keyboard to type in the appropriate correction, and then use the mouse to select the correct numbered selection.
