Punctuation Commands for other languages

Damaskox — Mon, 22 May 2017 08:53:35 GMT

Greetings!

(I am not sure, should I post this in Sony Phones forum, or to Google)

I purchased this phone about two weeks ago.

I have enjoyed using it so far.

There is one problem I have ran at.

When I am using Google speech-to-text, I have problems commanding periods, commas and such within my native language (Finnish).

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help!

Hi @Damaskox, welcome to the community. Sorry it took so long to get back to you.

I have been looking around for you and from what I can tell the punctuation seems to be in German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, and Russian only. So, no Finnish for now.

Greetings!

Thanks for the reply!

I did try to use English while commanding punctuation while speaking Finnish otherwise, but unfortunately those appear in written words (when I say Comma in the middle of a Finnish phrase, it prints out "comma" instead of ",")

Maybe Google doesn't like swapping languages while talking.

@Damaskox, it may be having difficulty with the language swap.

What happens if you talk completely in English, does it recognise the commands?
