Early attempts at commercial voice recognition seem to be based on replacing keyboard commands with simple phrases. The result is that authors of documents still have to learn how computer systems work. This presents a major obstacle to the growth of voice recognition. Many authors do not want to master the technology but almost all would agree that, if the benefits were available without this proviso, they could be won over. This document examines how voice recognition systems, with particular reference to large vocabulary word processing applications, can be significantly enhanced to produce the perceived penetration into the marketplace that otherwise may well remain a distant possibility.
