Specifying a pronunciation of a word in Microsoft

Question

I'm working on a small application in C# which performs speech recognition using Microsoft Speech API.

I need to add some non-english words to grammar, whose pronunciation don't obey english pronunciation rules.

Is it possible specify their pronunciation using International Phonetic Alphabet ?
If yes, which methods should be used ?

Answer 1

The way to achieve custom pronunciation here is by passing an SrgsDocument to the Grammar constructor. This allows specification per http://www.w3.org/TR/speech-grammar/.

I have not done this and it looks non-trivial, but this ought to allow you to do what you want.
