    Punctuation in Spoken Texts

    Okay, I stand corrected. I just was going post a screenshot of how dictation does not handle punctuation. As I did the dictation, I noticed something. The words, "question mark" and "comma" were put on the screen, then replaced by the correct punctuation.

    Yay!

    Chinese Punctuation Input in Windows 10

    Hi all I have upgraded my PC from Windows 7 to Windows 10 recently. However I cannot find a way to input any Chinese punctuations when I type Chinese using Changjie. I used to do that when I opened the IME pad or right click the language icon but I cannot
    do that anymore in Windows 10. Can someone help me to find a way to input Chinese punctuations? Do I need to install anything extra to do that under the new operating system?
