Installing and Training
Dragon NaturallySpeaking User’s Guide 15
■ Teens (US English only): A large vocabulary containing words
selected for a student population and providing excellent
recognition accuracy for higher-pitched voices, for example ages 11
through 18.
Vocabular y size
When you create a set of user files, Dragon NaturallySpeaking
®
recommends the vocabulary that best fits your computer’s speed and
memory. For most users, this recommendation should be followed.
Experienced users may want to click the Advanced button to specify a
different vocabulary size from among the following choices:
■ Extra Small: designed for computers with less than 64 MB of RAM.
■ Small: designed for computers with between 64 and 96 MB of RAM.
■ Medium: designed for computers with between 96 and 128 MB of
RAM.
■ Large: designed for computers with at least 150 MB of RAM.
■ Empty Dictation: a vocabulary with a language model but without
any words. This vocabulary is designed for experienced users or
value-added resellers who want to create highly specialized
vocabularies.
