Importing Lists of Vocabulary Entries
You now know how to add words and phrases one by one in the Vocabulary Editor. If you have many entries to
add, this is not the most efficient method, particularly if you already have some relevant lists in electronic
form. Dragon’s Word Import feature allows adding many vocabulary entries at once, even if they have spoken
forms.
Observe the sample import list in the illustration below, and identify the motivation behind each entry.
To create and import a list of vocabulary entries:
Step 1: Create a document (or edit an existing document) listing entries to add to the vocabulary. You can do
it in any word processor as long as you can save this document as plain text.
Have each entry on a separate line.
Make sure everything is spelled, capitalized and spaced correctly.
To include a Spoken Form, follow the Written Form with a backslash (\), then the Spoken Form: for
example Grb II\grab two.
Step 2: Save this document as a plain text (.txt) file. (Choose File > Save As, then, depending on what word
processor was used, you will choose Text Document, Text Only, or Plain Text.) Close it.
Once the file is closed, you can import your word list.
