I am trying to detect filler words like "um" and "uh". It seems by default these words are not processed by the web speech API. Any thoughts on how to change this?

It is filtered by the library which try to build a coherent sentence. Why do you need to capture those filler words ?

Hi Yves,

I want to create an app to let people practice giving speeches without using filler words. Users would verbally give their speech/presentation and the program would pick up filler words like "uh" ,"um" and "like" and alert the user (real-time hopefully). Still figuring out specifics but that is the overarching idea. I think my generation, including myself, uses filler words way too often. :)

Best,

Casey

Generally, for feature requests, you can search crbug.com for an existing issue for this feature request and star it. If you cannot find one, you can use the "New issue" link at crbug.com to file a new one.

(If you do find one, do not add comment like +1 or "me, too", it only hinders the development and it does not make the engineers implement the feature more quickly.)
