We reviewed SpeechTexter several years ago, and it was pretty good then. We took another look at it today and it’s vastly improved. In short, it\u2019s exceptional. It deserves another look especially if you\u2019d rather talk than type \u2013 or if it is easier for you to talk than type.<\/span><\/p>\n A lot of people are amazed by dictation software. I know I am. I can remember being in my grandpa\u2019s office and looking at a really strange machine and being Amazed. I was about 5 or 6. It was called a Dictaphone. If you don\u2019t know what a Dictaphone is, then you\u2019re too young to understand. They call them cassette recorders now. But Dictaphones were odd-looking things. I was impressed with them when I was a child.<\/span><\/p>\n So, it is no wonder I\u2019m impressed with digital speech to text software. There\u2019s a gazillion of -them out there right now. SpeechTexter that recognizes over 60 languages. Since I speak only 1.1 languages \u2014 I can say \u2018where is the beach\u201d and\u00a0 \u201cwhere is the bathroom\u201d in Spanish \u2014 the 6o+ language thing doesn\u2019t make much difference to me. But some of you are bilingual and some even multilingual. If you are, then this site should appeal to you. And if you only speak one language, that\u2019s cool too, as long as the one you speak is one of the 62 that SpeechTexter recognizes. And there\u2019s a really good chance, since you\u2019re reading this, that it does.<\/span><\/p>\n SpeechTexter is a web-app. It\u2019s a speech-to-text application that will take whatever you say into your computer microphone and automatically convert it to text in an on-screen word processor.\u00a0 From there you can copy and paste it into your text editor, word processor, email, Website, Facebook page, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n I tried it with my feeble attempts at Spanish and it worked great. Donde estas amigos?\u00a0 Oh, and if you speak English, like I kind of do, you can choose from different versions of English, including the U.S. version of English, the English version of English, the Australian version and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n So how about a word from the people behind SpeechTexter? OK here you go:<\/span><\/p>\n SpeechTexter is used daily by students, teachers, writers, bloggers, news reporters around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n It will assist you in minimizing your writing efforts significantly.<\/span><\/p>\n Accuracy levels higher than 90% should be expected (around 95% for the English US).<\/span><\/p>\n It can also be used as a tool for learning a proper pronunciation of words in the foreign language, in addition to helping a person develop fluency with their speaking skills.<\/span><\/p>\n Features:<\/span><\/p>\n Powerful real-time continuous speech recognition<\/span> Remember… you\u2019ll need to use the Google Chrome browser to use SpeechTexter.

\nAbove: SpeechTexter understands my horrible Spanish. And does a good job typing what I speak. And Grammar cops will surely notice I forgot some possessive apostrophes – but that was my fault. And the red lines? Those were put there by Grammarly, which sometimes knows not what it does.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"Cloudeight](\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2020\/speechtext2.png\")
