Spoken punctuation (comma, period, …)

Say punctuation command words while dictating — FlyType turns them into real marks using rules (no chat AI rewrite).

Before you start

  • Dictation on any client (cloud or local).
  • Speak the command as its own word: «запятая», «точка», comma, period.

Steps

  1. 1

    Start dictation as usual.

  2. 2

    To insert a mark, say the command word: comma / period / question mark — or Russian запятая / точка / вопросительный знак.

  3. 3

    Also supported: colon, semicolon, dash (тире), ellipsis (многоточие), new line / новая строка, new paragraph / абзац.

  4. 4

    Example: «привет запятая я здесь точка» → «Привет, я здесь.»

  5. 5

    Contextual Russian commas still apply automatically (знаю, что / потому что / однако, …) without spoken commands.

  6. 6

    Cleanup uses rules + spoken commands by default (POLISH_LLM_MODE=off). Short phrases skip extra processing for speed.

Common mistakes

  • Longest match wins: «точка с запятой» becomes ; not a period.
  • Command Mode rewrites selection — spoken punctuation is for normal dictation insert.
  • See Voice snippets for custom trigger phrases.
