Correcting Punctuation

Note the following when correcting punctuation:

nWhen you select a phrase (more than one word) that has punctuation, be sure to dictate that punctuation. For example, say you initially dictated, “Today is Thursday I have a meeting at 11 o’clock” and the text was transcribed as “Today is Thursday, I have a meeting at 11 o’clock.” If you want to change the comma to a period, say “Select Thursday comma.” If the correct punctuation appears in the Correction menu, select it. Otherwise, you can dictate over the selection by, for example, saying “Thursday period.”

nWhen you select punctuation, the Correction menu might list alternate punctuation

nIf Natural Punctuation is turned on, when you select a phrase that Dragon has added punctuation to, the choices will include punctuation changes .

NOTE: When you select a word that has adjacent punctuation the Natural Punctuation feature added, the selection will extend to include that punctuation.
