A method for marking dictated text for deferred correction or review of dictated text in a speech recognition system proofreader, comprising the steps of: displaying previously dictated text; sequentially highlighting words in the text; selectively establishing a mark for different ones of the sequentially highlighted words responsive to user commands; and, storing the marks in an ordered list, each of the marks including a current position and length of a corresponding marked word, whereby the marked words can be later recalled for correction in accordance with the ordered list. The method can, further comprise the steps of: displaying the previously dictated text in a first display window; sequentially displaying in a second display window a portion of the previously dictated text including the sequentially highlighted word; and, sequentially displaying in a third display window within the second display window the sequentially highlighted word.
