speech to text in hindi for android


I'm using following code and send locale for hindi but still speech to text gives result in English.

I want that result must be in hindi

 /**
     * Showing google speech input dialog
     */
    private void promptSpeechInput() {
        Locale locale;
        if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            locale = (Locale.forLanguageTag("hin"));
        } else {
            locale = (new Locale("hin"));
        }
        Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
        intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
                RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
        intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, locale);
        intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_PROMPT,
                getString(R.string.speech_not_supported));
        try {
            startActivityForResult(intent, REQ_CODE_SPEECH_INPUT);
        } catch (ActivityNotFoundException a) {
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                    getString(R.string.otp_send_dynamic_msg),
                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    }

Solution

  • Finally i got the solution , we have to pass a ISO string(in case of hindi its "hi")

    String languagePref = "hi";
            Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
            intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, languagePref);
            intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE, languagePref);
            intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_ONLY_RETURN_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE, languagePref);
