I haven't used VA for a long while because I bought it, on the mistaken assumption my English would be good enough for me to use the software. Spoiler alert, unfortunately, it isn't.

It's either that, or I had a stroke of such bad luck that it resulted in me rage uninstalling, because when I tried to say something, the software would mangle it, into something COMPLETELY different. On a side note, it is kind of hilarious if I talk in my own language, to see what the software makes of it, but I digress.

Surely, after so many years, there has to be SOME way to use Dutch to give voice commands right? Heck, at this point, I wouldn't even mind throwing some extra money at it, at some third party website, because while the software worked, it was awesome!

(Basically, I got a pet bird, that takes up my right hand, leaving me with my left, so being able to give voice commands to navigate my computer, helped a lot.)

Is there a way perhaps to use the google voice recognition for the software? At this point, I'd be willing to try anything!

Thanks!

Kingdark.

There has been a way to use Dutch since around mid-2017, using Speech Platform 11: https://voiceattack.com/alternate

VoiceAttack currently supports either SAPI (which is built into Windows) or Speech Platform 11 speech recognition systems.
