Abstract
Techniques for enabling voice-based language learning are described. A system of the present disclosure supports receipt of speech inputs in a user's native language and a language the user is learning. The system runs an automatic speech recognition (ASR) component configured for transcribing speech in the native language (e.g., English) and runs a phoneme recognition component configured for recognizing phonemes of the learning language (e.g., Spanish). The system can respond to commands provided in the native language (e.g., 'Stop lesson', “Repeat lesson”, etc.) and provide pronunciation feedback with respect to spoken inputs in the learning language.
