Definition

Namespace:

System.Speech.Recognition

Assembly:

System.Speech.dll

Package:

System.Speech v8.0.0

Source:

Occurs when the recognizer has recognized a word or words that may be a component of multiple complete phrases in a grammar.

public:
 event EventHandler<System::Speech::Recognition::SpeechHypothesizedEventArgs ^> ^ SpeechHypothesized;

public event EventHandler<System.Speech.Recognition.SpeechHypothesizedEventArgs> SpeechHypothesized;

member this.SpeechHypothesized : EventHandler<System.Speech.Recognition.SpeechHypothesizedEventArgs> 

Public Custom Event SpeechHypothesized As EventHandler(Of SpeechHypothesizedEventArgs) 

Event Type

EventHandler<SpeechHypothesizedEventArgs>

Examples

The following example recognizes phrases such as "Display the list of artists in the jazz category". The example uses the SpeechHypothesized event to display incomplete phrase fragments in the console as they are recognized.

using System;  
using System.Speech.Recognition;  

namespace SampleRecognition  
{  
  class Program  
  {  
    static void Main(string[] args)  

    // Initialize a shared speech recognition engine.  
    {  
      using (SpeechRecognizer recognizer =  
         new SpeechRecognizer())  
      {  

        // Create a grammar.  
        //  Create lists of alternative choices.  
        Choices listTypes = new Choices(new string[] { "albums", "artists" });  
        Choices genres = new Choices(new string[] {   
          "blues", "classical", "gospel", "jazz", "rock" });  

        //  Create a GrammarBuilder object and assemble the grammar components.  
        GrammarBuilder mediaMenu = new GrammarBuilder("Display the list of");  
        mediaMenu.Append(listTypes);  
        mediaMenu.Append("in the");  
        mediaMenu.Append(genres);  
        mediaMenu.Append("category.");  

        //  Build a Grammar object from the GrammarBuilder.  
        Grammar mediaMenuGrammar = new Grammar(mediaMenu);  
        mediaMenuGrammar.Name = "Media Chooser";  

        // Attach event handlers.  
        recognizer.LoadGrammarCompleted +=  
          new EventHandler<LoadGrammarCompletedEventArgs>(recognizer_LoadGrammarCompleted);  
        recognizer.SpeechRecognized +=  
          new EventHandler<SpeechRecognizedEventArgs>(recognizer_SpeechRecognized);  
        recognizer.SpeechHypothesized +=   
          new EventHandler<SpeechHypothesizedEventArgs>(recognizer_SpeechHypothesized);  

        // Load the grammar object to the recognizer.  
        recognizer.LoadGrammarAsync(mediaMenuGrammar);  

        // Keep the console window open.  
        Console.ReadLine();  
      }  
    }  

    // Handle the SpeechHypothesized event.  
    static void recognizer_SpeechHypothesized(object sender, SpeechHypothesizedEventArgs e)  
    {  
      Console.WriteLine("Speech hypothesized: " + e.Result.Text);  
    }  

    // Handle the LoadGrammarCompleted event.  
    static void recognizer_LoadGrammarCompleted(object sender, LoadGrammarCompletedEventArgs e)  
    {  
      Console.WriteLine("Grammar loaded: " + e.Grammar.Name);  
    }  

    // Handle the SpeechRecognized event.  
    static void recognizer_SpeechRecognized(object sender, SpeechRecognizedEventArgs e)  
    {  
      Console.WriteLine("Speech recognized: " + e.Result.Text);  
    }  
  }  
}  

Remarks

The shared recognizer can raise this event when the input is ambiguous. For example, for a speech recognition grammar that supports recognition of either "new game please" or "new game", "new game please" is an unambiguous input, and "new game" is an ambiguous input.

When you create a delegate for a SpeechHypothesized event, you identify the method that will handle the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate. For more information about event-handler delegates, see Events and Delegates.
