Word and Sentence pronunciation

Use Score Text/Pronunciation for word and sentence pronunciation scoring.

To better understand the word and sentence pronunciation scoring capabilities in the Speechace API, consider the demo on the following page: Say: After lunch I like to walk in the afternoon.

Here the user is being asked to pronounce the sentence "After lunch I like to walk in the afternoon". Once the user speaks the sentence, the interface shows the below screen:

As can be observed, the user mostly got the sentence right indicated by the letters marked in Green. However some parts of the sentence were marked in Red and the exact syllable and phoneme level mistakes are highlighted to pinpoint the errors in the user's pronunciation.

Such functionality can be built by utilizing the Score Text/Pronunciation function in the Speechace API.

The Score Text/Pronunciation function accepts the prompt string, "After lunch I like to walk in the afternoon" along with the corresponding user's audio for the prompt and returns a pronunciation quality score in the range of 0 to 100 along with a detailed breakdown of pronunciation quality of words, syllables and phonemes in the user's audio.
