public RecognitionResult SimulateRecognize(
string inputText
)
Parameters
- inputText
Type: System.String
The string for which to simulate recognition.

Remarks
The SimulateRecognize(String) method creates an ‘idealized’ audio representation of the input phrase (based on the engine's lexicon and acoustic model), and then performs recognition on the idealized audio. Simulation can help you to determine whether (or how well) the speech recognition engine recognizes the pronunciation of a word. This is in contrast to the EmulateRecognize() and EmulateRecognizeAsync() methods, which use text instead of audio for recognition.
