to some extent that's it. My wife is in the legal industry and they
actually are sometimes offered courses on how to dictate to dictaphone
machines. Basically thinking coherently as you dictate can really be a
challenge. People tend to think about things but not always in stream of
consciousness fashion. Keeping your thoughts organized and coherent while
generating a stream of consciousness output is the challenge. I find
discrete speech allows me to think more about what I say and modify what I
intend to say often before I say it. Working with a dictaphone or
continuous speech recognition systems affords you less of an opportunity to
do so.
