[Sugar-devel] Speech Recognition

The application of speech recognition for Sugar is to enable learners to 
pronounce words or sentences in English (or other second language) and 
have the speech recognition affirm by recognition that the sounds are 
sufficiently accurate. Currently this is often done by having the 
learner compare sound patterns (oscilloscope style).

As a simple example, suppose the student is presented an arithmetic 
problem (e.g. by KA Lite). Give the student the ability to say the 
result instead of having to enter it from a keyboard.
