Abstract
Technologies are described herein for cross-language speech recognition and translation. An example method of speech recognition and translation includes receiving an input utterance in a first language, the input utterance having at least one name of a named entity included therein and being pronounced in a second language, utilizing a customized language model to process at least a portion of the input utterance, and identifying the at least one name of the named entity from the input utterance utilizing a phonetic representation of the at least one name of the named entity. The phonetic representation has a pronunciation of the at least one name in the second language.
