Abstract
Embodiments that relate to identifying potential cross-language speech recognition problems are disclosed. For example, in one disclosed embodiment a speech recognition problem detection program receives a target word in a non-native language from a target application. A phonetic transcription of the target word comprising a plurality of target phonetic units is acquired. The program determines that at least one of the target phonetic units is not found in a plurality of native phonetic units associated with a native language. In response, a warning of the potential cross-language speech recognition problem may be outputted for display on a display device. The warning may comprise the target word.
