macos – Ho do I add a new paragraph or new line in Dictation

  • by


I have an M1 Mac Mini running Ventura. I am using a text editor, but I have tried this in other software, including Notes.

From time to time I try to give Dictation a go, but there are some things I can’t get working. In particular it doesn’t matter what I try, I can’t get a new paragraph or new line.

According to https://support.apple.com/en-au/guide/mac-help/mh40695/mac saying new paragraph or new line should work, but all I get is an extra space on the same line.

I accept that I speak with an Australian accent, but it has no trouble with the rest of the words I dictate, so I don’t think it’s the accent; anyway the accent isn’t so outlandish.

What is the secret to getting it work?
