I usually dictate in Spanish, my main target language, but I own the bilingual version of Dragon, where I can dictate either in English or in Spanish (a separate profile is created for each language), and even in my second language, English, Dragon does a superb job recognizing my non-native speech. Some of these issues were annoying enough that I many times abandoned any attempts to dictate translations and went back to typing, which is disappointing, particularly because Dragon's accuracy, even without prior training, is quite high, and has been for the past few releases. It also dropped spaces, clumping words together here and there, and had a major conflict with Studio's AutoSuggest when Studio 2015 first came out. For a while, Dragon would insert extra blank spaces at the beginning of segments or just before any newly inserted text.

In addition to the lack of full text control, the interaction between Dragon and Studio (particularly Studio 2014) has been plagued with little problems, such as the need to dictate the initial cap command for every segment, which is no longer an issue thanks to Studio 2015's autocorrect capability.

His most recent book, Locked in Time, examines some of the most astonishing fossils ever found, each of which offers an unprecedented glimpse at the real-life behaviors of prehistoric animals. In just over a decade of working in the field, he has published more than 50 academic papers, written more than 10 books, co-hosted TV shows and led major excavations. Despite never doing an undergraduate degree, Lomax completed a Masters and a PhD at the University of Manchester, where he is currently a visiting scientist. He has studied thousands of fossils, discovered five new species and led the excavation of the 'Rutland Sea Dragon' in 2021, a 10-meter-long giant ichthyosaur considered one of the greatest finds in British paleontological history. Lomax is a paleontologist and a leading world expert on ichthyosaurs (extinct marine reptiles). Lomax make groundbreaking discoveries about the ichthyosaur.ĭean R. But her research helped paleontologist Dean R. Known now as the mother of paleontology, Mary Anning's work was largely overlooked.
