Denise,

Are you saying:

“How do I do this question mark”


or are you saying:
“How do I do this question”


The first will give you the question mark punctuation at the end of the 
sentence, the second version will not.

hi, 
ok, this is what I thought. I have wanted to put a question mark at the end of 
a question, but got the actual word instead of the mark. so what am I doing 
wrong?

  If you want exclamation point, You need to say that, Not just exclamation. 
The words, and. Will insert those punctuation marks, as you can tell if you 
read this sentence character by character.

    Hello all,
    I was wondering about how to indicate punctuation when dictating with serri 
or the in app keyboard app. For example, when phrasing a question, is it a 
matter of voice inflection or does one actually need to say question? If so, 
how does one make sure that the word question or comma or whatever the mark 
happens to be is not inserted as an actual word. thanks.
