Add Words to the Dictionary
When you add words to the Dictionary, first you spell them correctly. Then you spell them the
way you want your device to pronounce them. For example, names of foods from other
countries are often mispronounced in English speaking devices. "Fajita" is a good name to
practice with.
To Add a Word to the Dictionary:
1. Go to the Toolbox.
2. Select the DICTIONARY MENU
.
3. Select the Add a Word option.
4. Spell the word you want to add. Spell it correctly. In this case you would spell, "fajita".
5. When you have finished spelling the word correctly, activate OK.
6. Now spell the word the way you want it to be pronounced. This means typing the word the
way it sounds. You may want to try out different spellings until your device pronounces the
word the way you want. Activate the text display area of the screen to hear the word
pronounced. You will probably end up with a word that looks something like, "fah hee tuh."
7. When you are satisfied with the pronunciation, activate OK.
8. You can continue to add words, delete words or review words. If you are finished with the
dictionary, activate OK.
Delete Words from the Dictionary
To Delete a Word from the Dictionary:
1. Go to the Toolbox and open the DICTIONARY MENU.
2. Select the Delete a Word option.
3. Correctly spell the word you want to delete.
4. Activate OK.
5. The word is automatically deleted.
Note: If you hear an error beep, try spelling the word differently (perhaps you misspelled
it). In order to delete a word you must enter the correct spelling of the word, not the
pronunciation spelling.
