[Athen] Text to speech for nursing student

[Ken Petri]

Text to speech or speech to text? Dragon if the latter.

For the former, I'm pretty sure it depends on the voice. Some do better than
others with latinate words. You might call Nuance and ask about their
RealSpeak voices. It may be they can tell you which are best for med
vocabulary. Nuance also has an interactive demo where you can type in text
and have the voice streamed back. Other voice makers, such as AT&T and
Cepstral have similar online demos.

Best,
ken
