On this page, you'll find the information, and download link for the google speech recognition add-in for NVDA: http://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/googleSpeechRecognition.en.html It's only like 300Kb big, and think what it does is literally submit yourrecorded voice clip to something like google's voice recognition engine,online, but, it offers a list of 32 languages, and lets you switch between them easily, and ue the voice recognition in any editable text field, and, for example, the two following bits of text are results: ek prat nou afrikans and now i'm speaking english In other words, it got both of those exactly right, within like 5 seconds, and only thing I did find is that I do need to talk a little bit carefully/clearly to make sure it recognises what I am saying, but, for thostwo little bits of text used Afrikaans - obviously - and english GB, andinunder 5 seconds each, it came back with the results above that literallyjust got pasted into this email's contents. And, was also very easy to use - NVDA key + Y to toggle between languagesselected from list, NVDA key + shift + G to start recording, and same tostop, and then when it told me result, NVDA key + G, and, voila! LOL!
