    This is a very common problem using NaturallySpeaking. Going to the
    Vocabulary Editor and remove the word "ghostly" from the dictionary.
    This will eliminate this particular problem. (This is also useful for
    other commands like "correct" word is often misinterpreted as
    "cracked".)

    Subject: "Go to sleep" command

    Hi all,

    Hoping all the brilliant minds will help me solve a problem. Have a
    young
    man using NS 4 and he is doing well except, the command go to sleep
    keeps
    coming up as written text "ghostly" We have tried training,
    re-training,
    substituting "Go sleep" but, needless to say,nothing works. The
    frustrating
    part is that the text the young man dictates is at about 89% accuracy
    rate
    when he does a short dictation doc. By the time he has said "go to
    sleep"
    three of four times in sequence, his level of frustration is totally
    corruptive of any acceptance of command.

    We are going to 5.0 on Monday but, I have concerns that the same
    problem
    will
    arise. Ooops, the young man noted does not have use of his hands so
    clicking on the mouse to stop dictation will not work and due to
    processing,
    he needs to be able to stop after short periods of dictation.
      Any solutions will be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks
    Nettie
