I was referring to the script you were reading from and getting 100%
accuracy you dumbass! So what's new about that? That's what I meant you
ignoramus.

You are not unique in accomplishing that. I Have been doing that for ages
now with WSR and Dragon. It's the words per minute I am questioning that
you boast of in the lying tirades of your previous posts. If it were
roundabout 150, which I suspect it was or lower, then what's new about that?
That is the norm! That is what I have been telling you for ages. Read the
posts properly you old dinosaur!

>YOU would not even
>give SR a 2nd glance if you were not handicaped.


Probably not, but I am, so I guess I'm stuck with it.
BTW, handicapped is spelt with 2 'p's' you illiterate cretin. If you had
spent more time at school than in these newsgroups, maybe you would have
learned to spell properly!

>Even Marty would not give a crap if he did not
>have his SR business.


Only an old imbecile such as you could make a statement like that. Just
shows what an unintelligent specimen you really are. Trying to second guess
what someone or something would do without having the knowledge in the first
place to know anything!

I doubt whether you would use it either if it did not give you that feeling
of imaginary self-importance because it is the only way you can draw
attention to yourself. Sad old man!

>> To get your 100% accuracy by reading from a script...


>Learn to use words correctly, you moron.


That's rich coming from someone who cannot spell despite as in Mark Conrad's
version *dispite* or handicapped as in *handicaped* (see above!) LOL!

>script (noun)
>Handwriting as distinct from print.


You know what I meant. Stop trying to change the subject and deflecting the
subject away from your bull **** nonsense just because you know you are
wrong. I doubt very much whether you were dictating that from your head
seeing as there is not much in it. I bet you were reading from a script like
you always do or repeating one word 20 times which is about as useful as a
chocolate teapot.

I suggest you look up script in the thesaurus:
script/writing/CHARACTERS/LETTERING/draft/WORDS

Once again, you should engage brain before opening mouth and stop putting
your foot in it :-)

You could have been reading from a letter or text from a book or some
magazine or something. Still means the same dumbass A SCRIPT you were
reading from as opposed to normal dictation that comes from within. Stop
trying to be smart when it is a hopeless cause!

In that case you can train *ANY WORD* in *ANY SPEECH APP* if it is not
hardcoded in it dumbass. The results will then come out the same.

LOL! Come on Marky get real!!! Those words are not exactly your everyday
run-of-the-mill words you would use in normal dictation are they? Once
again, if one needed any of those words, they could all be trained. I could
train them if I wanted to just as I did with
supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. You do come out with some ridiculous
rubbish :-)

How would you know if you have never used it? I have put about 80 documents
of mine through the 'add from file' section and trained several by reading
them from the 'train from text section' of the toolkit and noticed a
definite improvement in accuracy. As I say, it works from me ;-)

>Heck, "WSR Toolkit" can not even handle a simple
>sentence like this, without producing an error:


You are talking above as though you have got the WSR toolkit. If you have, I
have told you what to use and how to use it in previous posts of mine. If
you cannot use it properly, I suggest you get somebody to help you with the
instructions.

>would that bee be flying south


>How in the world would you expect it to handle

Who said anything about WSR being used for medical dictation? That's why
you bought your $1600 Dragon Medical isn't it? The right tool for the right
job except that particular tool is rather expensive.

Of course you can learn new tricks but you cannot dictate 200-260 words per
minute, period. And you can call the WSR toolkit what you like, it works for
me ;-)

>You persisted in taking my words out of context, when
>I was posting about speeds relative to syllables, etc.


Yep! Changing the rules to suit your needs ;-)
Ahh! I see we are now trying to backpedal from all the bull **** you have
spouted before.

This is the man who posted a link to a video of a woman speaking 600 words
per minute. Of course it all sounded like gobbledygook when she was speaking
but Conrad implied that Dragon NaturallySpeaking would actually understand
all those words and they would be put on the screen and be 100% accurate.
What a dork!

Then he boasted he could dictate 300 words per minute when I caught him out
and he realised how ridiculous that was, he then changed it to 300 syllables
per minute. Then he changed it to 260 words per minute now he has admitted
he could not do that after I pointed out his lies and bull **** and now he's
saying 200 words per minute, which is still ridiculous. And you actually
expect us to believe anything you say anymore. I'm going to call you 'Mr
make it up as he goes along man'. LOL!

>Such as:
>Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid
>of their country


>Where all of the words except one are one-syllable.


What are the chances when you are dictating that all of the words will be
one syllable? Answer: Zero! Keep it real Marky and stop making it up as you
go along to suit your own ends. Words are words, no matter how long they
are. A typist does not count syllables, they count words!!!

>might find it difficult to impossible to maintain 260 wpm


At last! You agree with me thus proving all you have boasted about before
was pure bull ****!
See, that didn't hurt did it by telling the truth at last.

>for any appreciable length of time, say one minute. 200 wpm is another
>story, I think I could do >that, and I think you could also, with a bit of

Marky, Marky, Marky, my funny little 80-year-old liar. I have tried several
times. The most I managed was about 154 words per minute in both Dragon and
WSR with no text mistakes and including all punctuation.
Having said that, it was no mean feat and I found myself talking like a
lunatic to get that amount of words in the one minute and expect them all to
be pronounced properly so that the speech app picked the words up and put
them on screen accurately. That was really pushing it. To even be able to
speak 200 words in a minute clearly and concisely (which is what the speech
app tutorial recommends) is frankly, absurd.

>BTW, we are talking about 100% raw accuracy, which
>would be difficult...


Difficult but possible because as I have stated above, I have already done
it at 150 words per minute with 100% raw accuracy as you call it within WSR.

>The "typing test rules" are... < SNIP >


Sorry, I had to snip the rest of the above because the distant aroma of bull
**** was raising its ugly head again!

The typist test rules are plain and simple. They count words per minute, no
matter how long the words are and all punctuation and spaces are included.
Any mistakes are deducted. You just compare like-for-like with speech
recognition. Plain and simple!
Take a look at the links below and learn!

You may be interested in this one. This shows the typing speed world record.
In this case it shows that typing can be as fast as speech recognition if
not faster ;-)

ROTFLMFAO! You are no more an expert than I AM THE King of Siam!

>"hepaticocholangiocholecystenterostomy"

>with no text mistakes.


That must come in handy when dictating naturally ;-)

Are you challenging me and saying that I could not train that word within
WSR? Remember supercalifragilisticexpialidocious?

>That is 113.8 wpm by "typing rules".


That is a long way short of your boasting 200-260 wpm ;-)

>At the other extreme, I can dictate 30 repetitions of
>the word "bee" in 5 seconds.


That must come in extremely handy as well for dictating naturally...NOT! ;-)
it also proves nothing!

>Going strictly by "typing rules", that is 285.6 wpm.


Now Marky, you were doing well until your little lie above came out. You
cannot dictate 285.6 wpm, you cannot dictate 260 wpm, you cannot dictate 200
wpm and you will be lucky to get 150 wpm and expect to get 100% accuracy.
Stop telling porky pies!

Next you'll be telling me that goblins and elves are real! You do make me
laugh you daft old bugger :-)

I do love your fairytale stories. Can't wait for the next one. When is it
due out? Your stories are nearly as good as JK Rowling's and just as
believable. Difference is, she got paid a lot of money for hers whereas
yours will always be bull ****.

>So you might say my practical dictation speed varies
>from a low of 113 wpm to a high of 285 wpm,
>depending on the nature of the words I am dictating.


You also might say leprechauns live at the end of my garden, doesn't mean
it's true ;-)
