Disclosed are a speech recognition device and a speech recognition method which perform speech recognition by executing an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and/or a machine learning algorithm installed thereon, to communicate with other electronic devices and an external server in a 5G communication environment. The speech recognition method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include converting a series of spoken utterance signals to a text item, extracting a discordant named-entity that is discordant with a parent domain inferred form the text, calculating probabilities of candidate words associated with the discordant named-entity based on calculated distances between a term representing the parent domain and each candidate word associated with the discordant named-entity, and based on the calculated probabilities, modifying the discordant named-entity in the text to one of the candidate words associated with the discordant named-entity.
