It helps if you look at ESL/accents (sm)

as music.  Some are classical, some are rap, some are rock.  You just have to find the rhythm and cadence of their speech and then it's so much easier.


It takes time but once you get into that zone of realizing they each have an individual "music" to their dictating, it becomes easier.  I have 3 ESLs, each from a different country.  I honestly wouldn't trade them for the world ... at times, they're easier than my American-born doctors. 


A lot of people panic but seriously, once you learn that rhythm, it all falls into place.  Good luck!

Thank you. That helps out a lot.
What you said is more along the line of what I was thinking, but that app did set my mind to wondering. Thanks again.
Thanks, this helps!

Hope this helps

I got this by typing "set font" into the help area:









Set the default font


  1. If your document already contains text formatted with the properties you want to use, select that text.
  2. On the Format menu, click Font.
  3. Select the options you want to apply to the default (default: A predefined setting. You can accept the default option settings, or you can change them to suit your own preferences.) font. If you selected text in step 1, the properties you want will appear in the dialog box.
  4. Click Default.

Any new document you open will use the font settings you select.

(The default button is on the lower left hand side of the format font screen.)
hope it helps
I really appreciate your reply. I'm not concerned with benefits as I can go on my husband's group insurance. I saw a post that MDI-MD takes part timers. Ever hear of them?
Hope this helps

Yes, the Rad book is good, as is the Ortho & Rehab words. A drug book helps or one on CD. Book mark
