1) the problem that i have always had with speach to text systems that i have tryed in the passt is that i speak creatively far more exspressivly than i read.

or to put it an other way like most dyslexics my reading is somrthing of a flat monotinus drone.

so having trained it to recognize my reading it is then as no chance of recognizing me speaking.

2) have you conciderd using talking book as your source of recordings?

someone would have to contact the the auther, the actor, and the publisher at the same time. because although it is probably clear how can give permition for you to use that sourse, they might not be prepaird to say yes without the aproval of the others, and may not have the time to seek it.

each book that can be used is; a profecianaly recorded, very large file, with good diction, and proper intonation.
