    Dave,
    After discussing this with many of our students who can use both continous
    and discrete speech, the choice to go back to discrete speech has more to
    do
    with there comfort level dictating word by word and editing as they write
    with a word box, rather than dealing with the speech coming up and having
    to
    look/edit without the speech box and usually within groups of words. These

    students have very accurate discrete speech files which do not require many

    corrections. On the continous speech side, after dictating awhile, they
    are
    not enunciating as clearly and have more errors. These are just a few
    thoughts but we encourage the students who do not have articulation
    problems
    to try continous speech before making a decision. Those students who are
    new
    to speech recognition, we usually try continous speech first. Hope this
    helps!
