MTs are often faced by words that seem so Greek sounding but in reality it just sounded Greek because the dictator is Greek, Irish, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, etc. To help you find those difficult sounding words accented by international dictators, here are some tips on how to search for the unknown and unfamiliar:
When you get to a word that you cannot hear, relisten to the word several times. A second and a third would be enough, and if you still cannot hear the word, put a blank and the voice counter so you can easily go back and check on it after you have listened to the whole file. You never know, the dictator may repeat the word you are looking for in some parts of the file and this would be a lot easier for you to reference.
You may also want to adjust the speed of the voiceplayer when you go back and relisten to it. Some words appear clearer when you reduce the speed or increase it. This will all depend on your keen attention to every sound or syllable being pronounced.
