About dictation
When you dictate, try to speak naturally and at your normal speed. Pronounce
each word clearly, not loudly, and in a way that is comfortable for you. Take
occasional breaks. As you dictate, by default Dragon displays a small Dragon
icon as it listens to you and processes your speech. When you pause,
Dragon transcribes the text into your document. See About the Results
Display for details.
For best recognition, speak in longer phrases rather than short phrases or
individual words. If you are having recognition problems, do not speak slowly or
deliberately.
