Same thing happens to me. In fact before I had uttered a sound WSR would print Th. Don't ask me why, it's not even a word, but I needed to add it to words to prevent from being dictated to get it to stop. Now it seems to type the word fifth. All I can guess is it's reacting to what ever sound the switch on my microphone makes when turned on.]]> Sun, 07 Feb 2010 14:17:32 +0000 https://www.msspeech-forum.com/repeat-appearance-of-non-spoken-word_topic165_post812.html#812 <![CDATA[repeat appearance of non spoken word : Eric W wrote:Thanks Marty!...]]> https://www.msspeech-forum.com/repeat-appearance-of-non-spoken-word_topic165_post811.html#811 Author: mmarkoe_admin

OK. Let us know how it goes.

This sounds like a microphone audio level adjustment problem. First start with the simple solutions:
  1. Make sure the microphone element of the headset is off the corner of your mouth. This will prevent exhales and inhales from being picked up as stray words.
  2. Run the audio setup, "Set up my microphone."
  3. If you're not using a noise cancelling microphone, consider getting a good one.

If the above suggestions do not help, you may need to make some registry settings to your sound card settings. CLICK HERE to see the thread that discusses this.
