CHAPTER 4
Dictating Names, Numbers & Punctuation
Dragon NaturallySpeaking User’s Guide
70
To dictate consecutive words without spaces:
1
Say
“No Space On”
to turn no spaces on.
2
Dictate the words you want to appear without spaces.
3
Say
“No Space Off”
to turn
no spaces off.
Compounding words later
You can compound the last words you said or compound selected words
by saying
“Compound That.”
*
To compound words:
1
Select the text you want to join. For example, if you want to join the
words “Web TV,” say
“Select Web TV.
2
Say
“Compound That.”
This command removes all spaces between selected words. (Any tabs or
line breaks are also removed.)
If the command doesn’t work (for example, if the words “compound that” are
typed into your document), you may need to say the command more clearly. Say “Undo
That” (or press
CTRL
+Z) to undo the last action, and then try the command again. Or
you can press the
CTRL
key while dictating to force Dragon NaturallySpeaking to
recognize what you say as a command.
Dictating words that end with ’s
When you dictate a word that should end with ’s (apostrophe ess),
Dragon NaturallySpeaking adds it if it can hear the “ess” sound and if
the ending makes sense in the context.
* This command works in the DragonPad, Microsoft Word, and Corel WordPerfect, but it
doesn’t work in all programs. See the online Help Command List, or “Which commands work
in which programs?” on page 171.
