Hello Ian, Zack, Geoff and Esther, It works! Per your suggestions, I just announced the punctuation marks as I went, and it worked perfectly. Then, I switched my keyboard to German, spoke German (including punctuation marks) and Siri performed flawlessly. The only downside, when I switched to German, was that my phone still spoke English. I wonder if there is a way to tie the VO output language to the keyboard one has in use. At any rate, per Esther's suggestion, I will buy the book in the App Store in order to refine my approach to speech input. Since my iPhone has 64GB of RAM, it might be possible to compose longer texts using Siri. I also downloaded the Dragon Dictation app, but I haven't tried it out yet.
You guys are great; thanks for your help!
