Just noticed the English US words no longer display the correct spelling. This previously was ok - now it displays the English UK spelling. Below is a list of some words that I found .For example if I say center and set the language code as en-US I am getting the result as centre which is English UK.
I am using Google api v2
https://www.google.com/speech-api/v2/recognize?output=json&lang=en-US&key=my_key"
WORDS ENDING IN –RE
British English words that end in -re often end in -er in American English:
British and US
centre center
fibre fiber
litre liter
theatre theater or theatre
Even though I am giving the language code as en-US the result returned will be in British English.Is this a common issue or US English code is no longer working. Any help will be appreciated.
Edit
I just noticed this issue is with ok google also Even though my input is in English us ,the answers I am getting is in English Uk.These are some other words
Words ending in -our
British English words ending in -our usually end in -or in American English:
British and US
colour color
flavour flavor
humour humor
labour labor
neighbour neighbor
Verbs in British English that can be spelled with either -ize or -ise at the end are always spelled with -ize at the end in American English:
British and US
apologize or apologise apologize
organize or organise organize
recognize or recognise recognize
Words ending in -yse
Verbs in British English that end in -yse are always spelled -yze in American English:
British and US
analyse analyze
breathalyse breathalyze
paralyse paralyze
I finally found a solution for it.I know most of the people don't just care if the result is in English UK or English US.But the problem was my app is a spelling app .So showing English UK words for English US language was a big problem for me.And the solution is really simple just get rid off Locale when English US is selected,ie replace en-US to en and your speech recognizing url looks like this https://www.google.com/speech-api/v2/recognize?output=json&lang=en&key=my_key. And use the locale for all other languages like en-GB for uk English.
Edit
Change url to
https://www.google.com/speech-api/v2/recognize?output=json&lang=0000&key=my_key .
Hoping this lasts longer.
