CHAPTER 6 Numbers and Punctuation Words that end with 's To dictate a word ending with (apostrophe) 's, just say it as you normally would. Dragon NaturallySpeaking® will often add it. If Dragon NaturallySpeaking® doesn't include the 's, you can add it later. TO EN TE R We went to Jennifer's office that's enough it's time to go SAY We went to Jennifer's office that's enough it's time to go Including 's as you dictate When you want to make sure that Dragon NaturallySpeaking® types a word with 's, say "apostrophe ess" after saying the word. For words that already end in "s," say "apostrophe" after the word, as in the second example shown here. TO EN TE R Peter's brother returned to New York I met my friends' children SAY Peter [apostrophe ess] brother returned to New York I met my friends [apostrophe] children Dictating hyphenated words Many hyphenated words and phrases are already in the Dragon NaturallySpeaking® vocabulary. To dictate a word or phrase that is usually hyphenated, just say it as you normally would.
