Abstract
A system, apparatus, method, and computer program product for a speaking aid. The system including network interface circuitry to receive speech input from a user. The speech input includes a partial sentence with a missing word or the partial sentence with a stuttered word. The system also includes a processor coupled to the network interface circuitry and one or more memory devices coupled to the processor. The one or more memory devices include instructions, that when executed by the processor, cause the system to detect a stutter or pause in the speech input, predict the stuttered word or the missing word, present a predicted word from an n-best list to the user; and if a prompt is received from the user, present a next word from the n-best list until the user speaks a correct word to replace the stutter or the pause.
