Nazia Hossain | Dilruba Shareen | Tarin Kazi
Abstract: Speech is natural mode of communication system for people. Among numerous languages; Bangla is the one which is spoken by about 250 million people around the world. However most of the computerized systems are user friendly only for the English language users. Hence; using computer is sometimes problematic for Bangla language users; especially when it comes to the part of writing. For this sake; a framework is introduced for writing Bangla words using voice command. An approach is presented for the activity that is used to improve the Bangla writing procedure. First; the speaker speaks over the microphone. Then the voice is processed instantly; that is; the spoken words or phrases are converted into text-form using speech engine. And then; the text formatted spoken words are matched into the phonemes or phrases which are stored in a XML file. Then using another XML file of corresponding letters for converting English text letters into Bangla; the spoken words are converted into Bangla text words. Thus; anyone can easily write Bangla by using voice. The main target of this paper is to build a framework that can write Bangla word in an editor using voice command.
