ChatGPT - can check your pronunciation better than Bing with ChatGPT!

A further activity for Dolors would be dictate the same sentences herself and to do this I have asked Chat GPT to print the sentences one by one and wait for ‘me’ to voice-type the exact same sentence, before evaluating it and presenting the next sentence for me. (Remember I am using Microsoft Edge and the Edge extension Speech Agent)

Could you please print each sentence in the text below one by one and wait for me to try to voice-type the exact same sentence before evaluating it and presenting me with the next?

Could you please print each sentence in the text below one by one and wait for me to try to voice-type the exact same sentence before evaluating it and presenting me with the next? When Jane arrived at Rob’s house, she didn't find Rob, but she found Paul. She wasn't expecting him because she thought that he was leaving. She asked him what had happened and why he was now at Rob’s house. He said that he missed the company and the relationship with Paul, but that's no problem because he thinks that he will soon go back to London. Jane was very angry because of this answer and at this moment, Rob arrived with breakfast. He asked her if she wanted to have breakfast with Paul and him, but she was very angry and declined. After that, Rob asked Paul what had happened, and Paul said that he had only told Jane that he was soon coming back to London. Rob said that he never said that, and Paul responded that he thought it would be better for him to come back to London because he believed that his life in New York had changed him. Rob argued that it was his life and that he wanted to live in New York, and that he loved Jane. Paul bought a bus ticket for Rob for that afternoon because he thought it was better for him to leave.

Sure, here's the first sentence:

"When Jane arrived at Rob’s house, she didn't find Rob, but she found Paul."

When Jane arrived at Robs house, she didn't find Rob, but she found Paul.

Great! Here's the next sentence:

"She wasn't expecting him because she thought that he was leaving."

She wasn't expecting him because she thought he was leaving.

Good job! Here's the next sentence:

"She asked him what had happened and why he was now at Rob’s house."

She asked him what had happened and why he was now at robs House. (I've highlighted a mistake it missed, but...)

Great! Here's the next sentence:

"He said that he missed the company and the relationship with Paul, but that's no problem because he thinks that he will soon go back to London."

He said that he missed the company and relationship with Paul, but that's no problem because he thinks he will soon go back to London.

Excellent! Here's the next sentence:

"Jane was very angry because of this answer and at this moment, Rob arrived with breakfast."

Jane was very hungry because of this answer and at this moment Rob arrived with breakfast.

Close! The correct sentence is "Jane was very angry because of this answer and at this moment, Rob arrived with breakfast." (Speech Agent doesn't alawys get the commas right and ChatGPT is strict about this!) (ChatGPT detected this problem hungry/angry which I made a deliberate mistake with, but see later on...)

Here's the next sentence:

"He asked her if she wanted to have breakfast with Paul and him, but she was very angry and declined."

He asked her if she wanted to have breakfast with Paul and him, but she was very angry and declined.

Perfect! Here's the next sentence:

"After that, Rob asked Paul what had happened, and Paul said that he had only told Jane that he was soon coming back to London."

After that, Rob asked Paul what had happened and Paul said that he had only told Jane that he would soon coming back to London.

Almost perfect! Just a minor mistake. The correct sentence is "After that, Rob asked Paul what had happened, and Paul said that he had only told Jane that he was soon coming back to London." (Speech Agent doesn't alawys get the commas right and ChatGPT is strict about this!)

Here's the next sentence:

"Rob said that he never said that, and Paul responded that he thought it would be better for him to come back to London because he believed that his life in New York had changed him."

Rob said that he never said that.And Paul responded that he thought it would be better for him to come back to London because he believed that his life in Njc had changed him.

Good job! Here's the next sentence: (Strangely, New York has been dictated as Njc by Speech Agent and not detected by ChatGPT)

"Rob argued that it was his life and that he wanted to live in New York, and that he loved Jane."

Bob argue that it was his life and that he wanted to live in New York and that he loved Jane.

Close! The correct sentence is "Rob argued that it was his life and that he wanted to live in New York, and that he loved Jane."

Here's the next sentence:

"Paul bought a bus ticket for Rob for that afternoon because he thought it was better for him to leave."

Paul bought a bus ticket for Rob for that afternoon because he thought it was better for him to leave.

Great! That's correct. Is there anything else I can help you with?

Please write the complete text again and I will try to voice type it all by reading it as naturally as possible. When I have finished could you point out any errors you find and suggest why Speech Agent may have had a problem understanding me?

Sure, here's the full text:

"When Jane arrived at Rob’s house, she didn't find Rob, but she found Paul. She wasn't expecting him because she thought that he was leaving. She asked him what had happened and why he was now at Rob’s house. He said that he missed the company and the relationship with Paul, but that's no problem because he thinks that he will soon go back to London. Jane was very angry because of this answer and at this moment, Rob arrived with breakfast. He asked her if she wanted to have breakfast with Paul and him, but she was very angry and declined. After that, Rob asked Paul what had happened, and Paul said that he had only told Jane that he was soon coming back to London. Rob said that he never said that, and Paul responded that he thought it would be better for him to come back to London because he believed that his life in New York had changed him. Rob argued that it was his life and that he wanted to live in New York, and that he loved Jane. Paul bought a bus ticket for Rob for that afternoon because he thought it was better for him to leave."

Go ahead and try to voice-type it, and I'll let you know if there are any errors and provide feedback.

When Jane arrived at Robs house, she didn't find Rob, but she found Paul.She wasn't expecting him because she thought that he was leaving.She asked him what had happened and why he was now at robs House.He said that he missed the company and the relationship with Paul, but that's no problem because he thinks he will soon go back to London.Jane was very angry because this answer and at this moment Rob arrived with breakfast.He asked her if she wanted her breakfast with Paul and him, but she was very angry and declined.After that, Rob asked Paul what had happened and Paul said that he had only told Jane that he was coming back to London.Rob said that he never said that, and Paul responded that he thought it would be better for him to come back to London because he believed that his life in Njc had changed him.Robe argued that it was his life and that he wanted to live in New York and that he loved Jane.Paul bought a bus ticket for Rob for that afternoon and.Said it was better for him to leave.

Here are the corrections to your transcription:

  • Instead of "hungry" it should be "angry" in the sentence "Jane was very angry because of this answer..." ( This is strange, because I didn't make that deliberate mistake in THIS exercise!)
  • Instead of "her breakfast" it should be "to have breakfast" in the sentence "He asked her if she wanted her breakfast with Paul and him..."
  • In the sentence "Paul said that he had only told Jane that he was coming back to London" it should be "soon coming back to London" instead of just "coming back to London".
  • Instead of "Njc" it should be "New York".
  • At the end of the text it should be "because he thought it was better for him to leave" instead of "and.Said it was better for him to leave".

It's possible that some of the errors were caused by misheard words or incorrect pronunciation of certain sounds. Also, speaking too quickly or not enunciating clearly can make it harder for speech recognition software to accurately transcribe the words. Keep practicing and speaking clearly, and you'll get better at voice typing!

 I found the advice given at the end absolutely heart-melting! Who could ask for a more charming teacher?
