Speech Recognition using Python

SpeechRecognition is based on a version version 3.8.1. Each Recognizer instance has seven methods for recognizing speech from an audio source using various APIs. Only recognize_sphinx() works offline with the CMU Sphinx engine. The other six all require an internet connection to recognize speech using the API. Each recognize_*() method will throw a speech_recognition.RequestError exception if the API is unreachable. The other 6 methods require a connection to the server.
