Nice video presentation however right now as I am typing this my "WORD" does not have dictation features or button and yes my "WORD" is up to date and latest version. Microsoft probably replaced it with PDF and signatures add ons.

Hello! The dictation feature is available on the Home tab (Voice section) in Microsoft Word 365. You do have to have an active 365 subscription. If you are on the latest Word version 2021, dictation is not available by default. You would have to use the built-in Windows Speech Recognition to dictate text into Word. I'm not sure what version you are on, but if you are on Word 2021, you can try these steps to use Windows Speech Recognition: Open Control Panel and select Ease of Access. Click on Speech Recognition. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up speech recognition. Once the setup is complete, click on the Start Speech Recognition button. In Word, place the cursor where you want dictation to start. Say "Start dictation" to begin dictating. When you're finished dictating, say "Stop dictation" If you are on Word 365 and you cannot access the Dictate feature, you may need to ensure your operating system is compatible with your version of Word or that your Language settings aren't causing an issue. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching my videos. Best of luck!
Nice sharon mam

can i have the computer read it back to me?
now we just need someone to remind people that this is standard on mobile devices. as well as lots of other commands, make appt, go here/there, open this app, and of course voice texting...but sadly no, we still see people standing, and playing with their phone like it is 1991.
How do I get it to stop deleting what I’m speaking?
Hi great video however when I use it creates randoms words when I speak

I recommend you see a speech therapist.😀
Speech to text it's cool but you always have to go back and correct it never picks up in other words you can say yes and they'll say no and if you say he it will say she yeah like that

Yes, it is still evolving and hopefully will continue to improve. I always have to speak more clearly than my normal speech and I often pause it to correct quick mistakes. If you have a lot to get down and are slow at typing, it can help. Thanks for watching!! Take care!
