commands if you wish. For more information, see “Hands-Free
Computing” on page 133.
Start by moving to the beginning of your dictation. (Say “Go To Beginning
of Document” to go to the start of your document.)
Read through your document until you find a misrecognition. Say
“Select” plus the words you want to change. (For example, if you said
“more” and the computer typed “word,” say “Select more.” Say it as one
continuous phrase, without pausing.) The Correction menu will appear.
If what you said is among the options listed on the Correction menu:
■ Choose the correct alternative by saying “Choose” plus the number
of that option. For example, if choice 3 is correct, say “Choose 3.”
If none of the options on the Correction menu is what you said, you can
spell the correct words:
■ Say “Spell That.” The Spell dialog box will open.
■ Spell the text in the Spell dialog box to match what you said, then
say “OK.” (For instructions on using the Spell dialog box, see
“Spelling as you dictate” on page 50.)

will correct your document to reflect the
changes you made. Continue reading through your document until you
find the next recognition mistake and repeat this process.
If you want to skip the Correction menu and open the Spell dialog box
immediately, from the Tools menu click Options, Correction, and select “Correct”
commands bring up Spell dialog. When you say Correct <word>, the Spell dialog box
will open. Also see “Customizing Dragon NaturallySpeaking” on page 197.
If you need to spell a word that’s short, you don’t need to use the Spell dialog
box. Just say “Spell That” plus the letters of the word. For example, to spell “mice,” say
“Spell That m-i-c-e.” Say the letters without pausing between them.
