speech to text in hindi for android

speech to text in hindi for android



I'm using following code and send locale for hindi but still speech to text gives result in English.



I want that result must be in hindi


/**
* Showing google speech input dialog
*/
private void promptSpeechInput()
Locale locale;
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
locale = (Locale.forLanguageTag("hin"));
else
locale = (new Locale("hin"));

Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, locale);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_PROMPT,
getString(R.string.speech_not_supported));
try
startActivityForResult(intent, REQ_CODE_SPEECH_INPUT);
catch (ActivityNotFoundException a)
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
getString(R.string.otp_send_dynamic_msg),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Shouldn't this :


result = (Locale.forLanguageTag("hin"));



be


locale = (Locale.forLanguageTag("hin"));






I forgot to update here , iam using the same var for both and pass them on intent extra so that is not a problem. Thanks for your response

Oh ok. I am not sure it will do anything but you could try to add intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE, locale). Also make sure you have the desired TTS voice data installed.

Finally i got the solution , we have to pass a ISO string(in case of hindi its "hi")


String languagePref = "hi";
Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, languagePref);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE, languagePref);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_ONLY_RETURN_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE, languagePref);
