Voice Recognition As A Translation Tool: Emphasizing The Integration Of Arabic Language
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study delves into the realm of voice recognition technology, which has undergone remarkable advancements in recent decades, offering notable benefits such as a more seamless and natural interaction between humans and machines, as well as enhanced efficiency for translators. This analysis aims to shed light on the leading voice recognition software available on the market, particularly focusing on the integration and performance of the Arabic language within these systems. By examining the place of Arabic in voice recognition software, we will investigate the challenges and opportunities that arise in ensuring the language's effective representation and functionality, thereby addressing the broader question of how voice recognition technology can better serve diverse linguistic communities.
