Explanation:
S'il s'agit simplement d'informer l'utilisateur (et non de répondre spécifiquement à une quelconque action de sa part), je ne vois pas la justification de "speak back".

>>> XXX peut vous informer en cours de dictée par synthèse vocale.

Sans plus de contexte, ce que je comprends, c'est que le logiciel de dictée peut informer l'utilisateur, par exemple, en lui disant de parler moins lentement, ou en l'informant "contextuellement" de certaines fonctionnalités.

J'ai travaillé un moment avec Dragon Naturally Speaking pour aller plus vite. Je ne vois pas l'intérêt pour l'application de relire/répéter ce que vous venez de dire. Une fois la configuration initiale (l'apprentissage de votre prononciation) effectuée, ça devient inutile (et ça marchait déjà très bien il y a plus de quatre ans).

Explanation:
"XX allows you to type your query or simply ask XX a question. XX can speak back to you, delivering a precise answer such as how much traffic to expect before you leave for work or when the next train will arrive as you’re standing on the platform."
