1
Dictate the following sentence. The word “Punxsutawney”

Tony” instead of “Punxsutawney”), correct the mistake.

“Select punk said Tony.”
The Quick Correct list will appear with the most likely choices for the
word you selected.
“Select” commands and the Quick Correct list are available in the DragonPad

it active in any program, you can always select the word by voice or mouse and then say
“Spell That” (steps 4 and 5).
3
If the word you want appears in the Quick Correct list, say (for example)
Choose 2
.” You can say any number that appears in the list.
