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


Have fun!

  Hi Mike,
  Punctuation is quite easy to use. 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.

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?
