Deleting the next or previous word or character
You can delete the next or previous word by saying “Delete Next Word” or “Delete
Previous Word.” You can delete the next or previous character by saying “Delete Next
Character”
or “Delete Previous Character.”
You can also delete a number of words or characters (up to 20). For example, you can
say
“Delete Previous 5 Words.”
See the complete list below:
Another way to delete the previous character is by saying “Backspace.” This is equivalent to
pressing the BACKSPACE key. You can “press” it multiple times (up to 20) by saying, for example,
“Backspace 5.”
Spelling as you dictate
With the Spell command in Dragon NaturallySpeaking, you can easily spell a word
or phrase you want to dictate into your document. This can be useful if you are
dictating a word that is not likely to be in the Dragon NaturallySpeaking vocabulary,
such as a proprietary term, a proper name, or a non-English word. Say, for example,
“Spell b-u-o-n space g-i-o-r-n-o.” The word you spelled appears right in your
document.
You must say “Cap” if the word contains a capital letter. For example, say “Spell Cap
R-u-m-p-e-l-s-t-i-l-s-k-i-n” to type “Rumpelstilskin.”
