iOS and iPadOS

How do ou get Siri to put a period in a text message? I can get it to put in the question mark, comma, exclamation point, but not the period. Also, how to you get Siri to put in an email address in a message? I am using an iPhone 7 with the latest version of IOS 10.

Hi Wayne, to get SIRI to put a period in text I simply say "Full Stop". Hope this helps.

Siri help with email

Wayne, As long as the person's email address is in your contacts, you can say "Send message to So-in-So." Siri will answer, "What do you want to say to So-in-so?" I haven't tried asking Siri to send a message to someone by saying an email address.

Siri Period Question

When I use Siri dictation, all I do is say something like "This is a test period." When I do this, Siri inserts the period punctuation mark and not the word itself. Works every time for me and I use dictation a lot.
