Abstract

A system and method performs multilingual wakeword detection by determining a language corresponding to the wakeword. A first wakeword-detection component, which may execute using a digital-signal processor, determines that audio data includes a representation of the wakeword and determines a language corresponding to the wakeword. A second, more accurate wakeword-detection component may then process the audio data using the language to confirm that it includes the representation of the wakeword. The audio data may then be sent to a remote system for further processing.
