Sony ICD-BP150VTP Manual

If you say “Spell” by itself, without any letters after it, the Spell dialog box opens.

You can then speak the letters and Dragon NaturallySpeaking will type them or you 
can correct any errors in the word you spelled. 

When spelling, you can say numbers and special characters as well as letters. For 
example, to dictate an automobile license plate number, you could say “Spell y-h-m-
6-0-9.” Dragon NaturallySpeaking would type “yhm609.” Say “Spell Cap-m-a-c-m-i-
l-l-a-n-trademark” to get “MacMillan™” in your document.

Spelling a word adds that word to the active vocabulary. Words that contain 
numbers are not added to the vocabulary.

You can make the Spell dialog box appear whenever you use the Spell command by 
setting the “Spell” commands bring up the Spell dialog box option on the Correction tab 
in the Options dialog box. See page 161 for more information.

You can also access the Spell dialog box when using the "Select" or “Correct” 
commands.

For a list of how to spell special characters, see the Spelling topic in the online Help 
or the “Commands List” on page 173.
