Embodiment Construction

[0101] figure 1 is a block diagram of an operating environment 100 for a digital assistant in accordance with some embodiments. The terms "digital assistant," "virtual assistant," "intelligent automated assistant," or "automated digital assistant" mean interpreting spoken and / or textual natural language input to infer user intent and perform actions based on the inferred user intent any information processing system. For example, to perform the inferred user intent, the system may perform one or more of the following: identify a task flow by designing steps and parameters to achieve the inferred user intent, combine specific information from the inferred user intent Requiring input into a task flow; executing the task flow by calling a program, method, service, API, etc.; and generating an output response to the user in audible (eg, speech) and / or visual form.

[0102] In particular, the digital assistant is capable of accepting user requests in the form, at least in part, o...

Abstract

The method includes receiving, from a user, a first speech input spoken in a first language; inferring a user intent based on at least the first speech input in the first language; based on the inferred user intent, generating one or more alternative expressions of the first speech input in the first language; and providing feedback to the user introducing the alternative expressions as a more preferred input to express the inferred user intent than the first speech input provided by the user.
