With Enhanced Dictation enabled, you can now move onto determining the shortcut that will launch the Dictation window. For users with large traditional hard drives, this shouldn’t be a problem, but if you rely on an SSD with limited space, you might want to think twice. It does, however, come at a cost: around 800MB of disk space. To do that, you’ll need to check the box labelled Use Enhanced Dictation, this enables many advanced features including offline use, continuous dictation with live feedback, and the ability to use the voice of Siri. You can configure the basics of Dictation within System Preferences While useful, that won’t get you very much closer to your goal of replicating some of Siri’s functionality. That will enable only the most basic Dictation features available in OS X notably, the ability to dictate text using your voice into any text field. Once in the Dictation pane, you’ll want to switch the Dictation option to On. To configure Dictation, first launch System Preferences and navigate to the Dictation & Speech preference pane. The basis of our faux-Siri will be the Dictation feature that is baked right into OS X.
