Help Your Profile to Learn by Correcting Voice Recognition Mistakes

For the software to learn, errors must be corrected within 20 minutes.

 
Errors can be corrected in one of three ways:

1. Type the correction with the keyboard.
   Fluency Direct will learn from typed corrections though it will take multiple times to take effect. This is to account for the situation where it is meant to be a one-time correction.
2. Use the Correct Selection command.
1. Select the word or phrase either by highlighting using your mouse or press Play and say “select [text]“.

Play vs Record microphone buttons.
Normally we press the record button when dictating; however, when issuing a command, it is best to use the play button as this tells the software that it is listening for a command. If you use the record button when issuing a command, it could be recognised as a command OR it could be rendered as voice to text.

2. Press Play and say “correct selection” or “correct that” to open the error correction window.
3. You will be presented with a list of choices. To accept a choice, press Play and say “choose [number]”.
4. If your correction is not listed, type the correct word in the text box. To add to dictionary, press Play and say “Add 1“.

3. Add the corrected word into your Dictionary.
1. Highlight corrected word, press Play and say “add to dictionary“. The dictionary entry window displays.
2. Choose the correct category for the word.
3. Click Change to add a pronunciation then select the Record Pronunciation tab to record your pronunciation of the word.
4. Click Save.
