REACH Sound-It-Out Add-On

REACH's Sound-It-Out is a collection of specialized keyboards and dictionaries designed help you spell phonetically yet accurately.

How It Works

If you have real trouble spelling, word prediction sometimes can't help too much. Moreover, even if word prediction could use "phonetic" spelling, there are situations where this can't even help.

Sound-It-Out can help! The Sound-It-Out add-on feature is a keyboard and dictionary pack that helps you spell words phonetically. Using the same technology from our "Sounds Like" - Spell, Write! product you spell more accurately. Point at the "Buh" key which shows a picture of a bus, and it says "buh - bus." Click on the "Buh" key and Smart Keys removes all the phoneme keys for sounds that do not follow an initial "buh" sound - just like Smart keys, but with sounds. This product also helps with homophones like for, four, and four, by providing spoken "homophone hints," which are short examples of that word used in a phrase.

Try out the Sound-It-Out keyboard pack while using our demo software. Click on the "Home" button on the REACH Button bar. Click on "My Favorite Keyboards" and then click on "Sound It Out: Pictures" or "Sound It Out: Star." Give it a try!
