Except for a few words that I can not replicate the sound.

Theoretically speaking, if I read a phrase and it is transcribed correctly by Dragon, then a German speaker should understand the sounds I am making.Īs I got better at it, and the transcription from Dragon Anywhere matched the text from GLossika. I would listen to the German phrase in Glossika, and then I would try to replicate the sound after and Dragon Anywhere will give me immediate feedback by the from of a transcription in text the wrong transcription means an incorrect pronunciation. You will have transcription errors until you can reproduce the phonemes, then you will get the text compared to the control group. Then you will try to pronounce the same sentences and let Dragon Anywhere transcribe the text. Turn the microphone on and play the audio and let the app transcribe the sound it should be 95 % accuracy. Try with your English native accent, and you will probably get above 95 % accuracy.įirst, play a few sentences from audio with text to have a control group. You have three languages you can use, English American or UK, and German.

Yes, the accuracy changes, Windows is not good at all. I have noticed that the transcription errors are not errors but me not knowing the correct pronunciation in English.Ĭainntear wrote:Also, Windows has inbuilt speech recognition - is Dragon sufficiently better for this that it's worth paying extra? In the hospital I work, I use Dragon so many other workers there. I prefer to use Drago that google, I believe the two programs work differently.

Granted, no punctuations but the text is accurate. I have even played an Assimil German lesson while have a google doc open with the "Voice Typing" feature, and I get a very good transcription. It is important what you mention here because I don't want other people to think that this tecnology does not work and prevent them to give it a try and check it out for themselves. I know you speak Dutch Tommus, I have read some of your interesting posts. I think the main ingredients of successful STT are clear pronunciation and careful, deliberate speech, not the quality of the microphone. But using the Yeti isn't necessary for good quality STT. I have a very nice Yeti microphone that is excellent for Skype language chats because it is high quality, and it has its own audio out (that lets you listen to your own voice and the incoming voice without any latency issues).

With a well-spoken English accent, she sounds nothing like an American, hence why the software was having trouble understanding her.Tommus wrote:I have had excellent results with speech-to-text using Dragon Natural Speaking, Google Translate and other online STT applications with poor microphones and good microphones. To that end, the United States mode would print American spellings, i.e customized and realized.Īs a result, it was no surprise to me that our client was experiencing low accuracy. Within each option comes different spellings, pronunciations, and nuances. For example, under the English language alone there are various sub-options such as Indian accented English and Standard English. Although seemingly trivial, this minor slip has dramatic effects on how the technology performs.ĭragon speech to text comes with various language packs for each language and their subsequent regions. I quickly learned that this client had accidentally selected American English rather than UK English. Furthermore, the software also prompts you to select a language. When setting up a Dragon profile, it takes you through various steps – Your details, and voice enrollment to name a few. I found out that the selected language was, in fact, the problem, after checking the client’s Dragon profile, the settings in particular.

It then occurred to me that the criteria of the problem fitted that of a problem with the language setting. Then I did an audio check – No improvement. Eventually, I decided to conduct a little investigation.
