Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about your disability. Microsoft Word actually has a built-in feature called
"Dictate" that allows you to speak and have your words typed out for you. Here's how to use it:
- Open a new Word document.
- Click on the "Dictate" button in the toolbar at the top of the screen. It looks like a microphone.
- A pop-up window will appear. Click "OK" to give Word permission to access your microphone.
- Start speaking! Your words will appear on the screen as you talk.
- When you're finished, click the "Dictate" button again to stop.
Note that Dictate works best if you speak clearly and in a quiet environment. It may also take some time to get used to speaking your punctuation (e.g.
"period" for a full stop,
"comma" for a comma, etc.).
