someone while the microphone is on, ViaVoice will capture your
conversation and not recognize your words as part of the story.
Hesitation noises like 'um' or 'uh', coughing and 'slips of the tongue'
are picked up as words.
U If a word can be pronounced more than one way—like 'thuh' and
'thee' for the word the—try both pronunciations.
U Are you actually saying all words correctly? For example, do not
misread this as the. Do not skip any words.
U If you are speaking in a room with a lot of unusual background noise,
wait until the noise subsides before reading the story.
U Are you using the appropriate language version of ViaVoice? You can
verify this by selecting Start > Settings > Control Panel > ViaVoice
Options. At the User tab in the Voice model field you will see either
'US English' or 'UK English'. If you find that you are using the wrong
language version, uninstall the program and install the correct
language version.
