How to set the language in speech recognition on android?

Question

I\'ve been working on speech Recognition API in android and found out that the speech results vary allot when the language settings are changed , is there a way to set it pr

Answer 1

This will work:

intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, "en_US");

You have to use "en_US" instead of "en-US". The former is the right format of Java locale tag.

It is suggested that you use

intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, Locale.US.toString());

to avoid remembering such detail.
