Voice dictation software for MS Word etc

Funnily enough I was messing around with some at the end of last year.

I found it recognised my voice, when I spoke reasonably clearly, well, but I couldn't get on with it. If you know what you are going to say and can dictate it mostly in one long healthy stream, then it seems to work fine. But that's not me.

I tend to compose documents as I write with no more than a basic framework in my head; consider how something looks, revise, amend, re-order, sometimes stream of consciousness and sometimes considering each bit slowly. If I'm doing that verbally it tends to include mumbling, mis-pronunciations, words changing form half way through etc. etc.

It didn't go well.

Perhaps if you are often writing much the same thing with just a few bits changed, then that may well be a different thing.
I find it just doesn't work well like that.

Though it is worth mentioning that I probably only tried it for half a day, this wasn't a thorough road test; it was more a quick try and then a flinging against a wall.

"It didn't go well"

Yeah, but you're Welsh right? Probably doesn't understand "There's lovely isn't it boyo" does it?

😜

I wouldn't bother. The PC keyboard is so much more fluent and easy. (unlike an andoid phone for example)
