Using the Don't Recognize That Word Command
Dragon lets you to turn off recognition of words using the Correction menu and the "Don't
recognize that word" command.
Don't Recognize That Word removes the selected word from your active Vocabulary, so that
Dragon won't recognize it again. This can save you time if Dragon repeatedly replaces words
you dictate with words you don't use.
For example, if you dictate the name "Cassity" often and Dragon always hears "Cassidy", you
could use Don't Recognize That Word from the Correction menu to turn off recognition of Cas-
sidy. If you decide later that you do need to use the word, you can add it back using the
Vocabulary Editor.
