Hi Paul and Paula, To expand on Paula's advice, this article describes how to dictate punctuation including line breaks, caps, etc. It is applicable for both Siri and the Dragon app (which I long ago deleted). BTW, Siri does appear to know all the cuss words (not that I ever utter them :) ).
Best regards.

I also use the drag and dictate app. I find that if I say comma, full stop, question mark, etc. It will put in the appropriate punctuation. I've not used the virtual keyboard but export the stuff I have dictated to the text message I'm going to send and then edit it in there. My only complaint with Drag and Dictate is that it can't swear :) lol I hope this helps.

It has done a very good job of speech recognition. Is there any way to get it to include punctuation like commas, full stops, and new lines? I tried speaking the word comma and stop and also leaving long pauses in my dictation in the hope that it would include the appropriate punctuation but alas no. So what is the easiest way for a VoiceOver user to add punctuation? I have not used the virtual keyboard much but when I did try it I found it quite tricky to edit already entered text. Many thanks for any tips. Best wishes....
