Tips for German dictation
- Umlauts and ß come out correctly, and long compound nouns are usually handled as one word.
- Pick your country variant: Austrian and Swiss speakers often get better results with their own setting.
- Use Chrome or Edge, allow microphone access, and speak at a steady pace in a quiet room.
