I'm sure Google will pull up other references, but one good source of Siri punctuation dictation refinements is here.
Have fun!

Just say, for instance, "period," "comma," and the like. Common acronyms are handled automatically based on usage, but I'm not sure there's a definitive list anywhere. Less common ones might require some use of the Siri capitalization commands. These can be found, among other places, in any good book on using Siri. A Google search should also turn up this information. Hope this helps, Zack.

I was wondering if there was a way to get Siri to use proper punctuation in sentences. Is it possible,for example, to tell Siri to insert punctuation marks in sentences? How can one get Siri to handle acronyms properly? > > Thanks in advance, > > Mike > > <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> > > To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net > > You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: > <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html> > or at the public Mail Archive: > <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>. > Subscribe to the list's RSS feed from: > <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/maillist.xml> > > The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free! > > Please remember to update your membership options periodically by visiting the list website at: > <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/mac-access/options/> <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html> or at the public Mail Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>.
