I used it to dictate part of an essay in my native language, Italian,
5 years ago, and tried it with my thesis, in English.
Results for me were disappointing:
- - in English, as I expected, it was not too accurate (my accent is,
naturally, not that of a native speaker)
- - in Italian was more accurate but as I can't roll "Rs" it was missing
all words containing any "R"... my fault, ok, but I was expecting to
be able to train this.
That said, it was 5 years ago so hopefully things have moved a bit :)
