  1. 1.

    Speak at an even pace — clearly, but not unnaturally slowly.

  2. 2.

    Quiet matters more than a good microphone; background chatter confuses it most.

  3. 3.

    Stay close to the microphone and away from hard echoing walls.

  4. 4.

    Amharic recognition is weaker than English; expect to correct names and loanwords.

Recognition is handled by the browser, which may send audio to its vendor to transcribe. Chrome, Edge and Brave support this; Firefox does not.
