Cannot Dictate "New Line" for a return key stroke.

When using dictation I can't get "New Line" to work. It simply types this phrase! The "New Paragraph" command works, but adds all these additional spaces into my text. Has anybody got ideas on how to resolve? Is there another way to dictate a "return key"?

iPad mini Wi-Fi + Cellular (MM), iOS 7.0.4, Same on iphone 5

My guess is this issue is caused by the language you selected at System Preferences > Dictation & Speech > DIctation > Langugage


"New line" works for me.
