A little experiment

45 replies

so I'm trying a little experiment just before I go off to bed to see how accurate the dictation is on my iPad hey seems to be going OK so far I don't know if you mistakes are slightly more mistakes now so I was wondering how her throat would go if that's all we did just dictate instead of typing no corrections I don't know how to cook. So they say oh that was supposed to say. It's kind a little bit wrong though

I assumed you were pissed kitten or perhaps exhausted from the snow watch. It's interesting that it gets better with use I have used mine before and it seems more reliable and I don't sound pissed But how do we do mums net emoji?

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 01/02/2019 08:33

Just to clarify that obviously that was dictated!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/02/2019 13:04

even when I'm pissed I make some sort of sense! Space X I seem to have added a space in there and an X. Space okay thanks space doesn't work. I clearly need to improve my diction. Return

Yeah if you say the word

But you can't say the word because it does it when it happens.

he seems better for some of us and it is for others nudes girl uses quite hilarious. Interesting.

How is yours so accurate WeBuilt? (I typed that bit)

I am trying to dictate this message now I’ve never really had much confidence in dictation so I never turn it on but this seems to be going okay I don’t know how to add punctuation? Oh no never mind I found out this is quite fun isn’t it LOL i’m surprised at how well this has worked

OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/02/2019 13:36

"Nudes girl" GrinGrin (I'm typing as DH is next to me and will wonder WTF I'm doing if I start saying stuff like this out loud Smile)

I spent a month with my hand out of action and I think my phone just got used to my dictation and like auto correct, remembers the words you use frequently?

Clearly you say "nudes girl" quite often Wink

picklemepopcorn · 01/02/2019 15:04

I knew what you wanted OP I didn't post last night because I didn't wanna wake my husband up talking.

It's just done my punctuation beautifully.

picklemepopcorn · 01/02/2019 15:05

Let's see how it gets on with commas. So I went to the shop and I bought 15 bananas, 33 eggs, and half a pound of butter.

Wow I'm really impressed with this. Space oh dear that didn't work so well done.
It contains

picklemepopcorn · 01/02/2019 15:05

Oops

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 01/02/2019 15:08

DH come to the toilet

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 01/02/2019 15:09

Grin I was trying to dictate "DH has gone to the toilet so I am dictating again"!

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 01/02/2019 15:10

DH has gone to the toilet. How do you do the starting new paragraph? Clearly return doesn't work return return

OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/02/2019 15:12

yes I say nudes girl all the time. Paralee my snow that was supposed to be having not styled snow. Try that sentence again. Paragraph.

Apparently the snow that I was going to be having this turned all to sleep now no. Not sleep sleep know who . Sleet sleet. That's better. I think I best find something better to do than this. I'm procrastinating. Are you understood that bloody bugger. End

OP posts:
OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/02/2019 15:12

You have to say new paragraph. If you just say paragraph that's what it writes.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/02/2019 15:13

Lol!!!! Inviting your dh to the loo seemed a little odd.

OP posts:
WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 01/02/2019 15:14

Inviting him to the loo via the medium of mums net smile paragraph paragraph paragraph thing doesn't work for me

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 01/02/2019 15:14

I should read the post properly.

It works yay

OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/02/2019 15:16

you have to say

NEW space paragraph.

I don't know what to say now. It's snowing now. Snow is good.

OP posts:
picklemepopcorn · 01/02/2019 15:21

I can just say

The words NEW space P a R a G are a PH and hey presto a new paragraph begins.

When I say the words SP a CE I'll try that again when I say the word space I will get a space butOnly if I pause before I say space sometimes.
It doesn't notice when I laugh. Well, it notices but it doesn't say anything about it chuckle giggle tiki yeah not a sausage
