Re: voice recognition software

Post by admin »

I am a very recent traumatic BPI, about 4 weeks.

I knew that voice recognition was available but never thought how important it could be for me.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

I am also new to this forum...found it when starting to do research on my injury.

hey jacko!

as a bluddy colonist (canuck), i like speakin' proper henglish too! =o)

unfortunately, i'm not sure about changing the spelling. you'd have to ask their tech people. i don't like the fact that numbers are spelled out, but it's been a hand-saver anyway.

sorry i couldn't help.

hugs,

jan

hi pat and welcome!

although i've been RTBPI for 2.5 years now, i only found these boards about a month ago. what a source of strength and encouragement they've been! the voice recognition software will help - trust me. i was a secretary before my injury and HATED that i typed so slowly after it.
i will mention, though, start practicing writing/printing with your good hand. it's hard and will take time, but it's worth it. i taught myself to print with my left hand by doing easy crossword puzzles. i still find writing hard, but it gets easier each time.

hugs,

jan
