WordQ 2
What can I do with WordQ?
You can use WordQ along with any standard writing software (e.g.,
Microsoft Word, WordPad, Notepad, or Outlook). When you type a
letter, WordQ predicts what you might want to write and displays a
list of correctly spelled words from which you can choose. When you
see the word you want, you can choose it with a single keystroke or
with the mouse. If you need help deciding which word to use, each
word can be read aloud before you make a selection.
When you’ve finished typing your sentence, WordQ can read it back to
you. Then you can hear if there are any mistakes such as missing
words or punctuation. Often you can hear mistakes that you can’t
see.
Word Prediction

Several starting user vocabularies are included (using Canadian, UK,
or US spelling) at different writing and age levels. These are like
the words in your head. WordQ continually learns how you use words
so that it improves over time. If you want to write about a specific
area, you can create and use specialized topic lists to make the
predictions even better. Different people can also use WordQ, each
with their own user vocabulary.

WordQ 2 Advantages
• A high-quality natural sounding text-to-speech engine by the
Acapela Group is included so that text is more clearly heard
• In-context prediction makes corrections easier by displaying
appropriate word predictions wherever the text cursor is placed,
even when the cursor is in the middle of a word
• A temporarily disappearing word prediction box allows you to move
through your documents without distraction while holding down any
arrow key
• Usage examples with speech feedback of commonly confused words, such
as “there” and “their,” helps you distinguish such words

• Creative spelling is now optionally considered as you type when
predicting words to show you spellchecked suggestions

• Saving user vocabularies and usage examples as an independent file
allows easier editing and sharing with other users
WordQ v2.2 Improvements
• An option has been added to permit users in school settings to store
their WordQ vocabulary files (and, if using the SpeakQ speech
recognition plug-in, their speech files) on a central server instead
of the local workstation. This capability permits a student to move
from workstation to workstation and have access to their WordQ/SpeakQ
settings available wherever they log in. Network administrators can
find out more about enabling this option by viewing the FAQ WordQ
v2.2 and SpeakQ v1.2 Network Installation
• The Acapela text-to-speech engine has been upgraded to address a
potential incompatibility with other applications using Acapela's
text-to-speech products.
