Abstract
Systems and methods for providing pronunciation services for video conferencing are described. A method includes receiving, by a video conference provider, an audio stream of a pronunciation of one or more words. The video conference provider may associate the audio stream of the pronunciation with a user of a first client device, in which the first client device is configured to join a video conference hosted by a video conference provider, the video conference having a plurality of participants using a plurality of client devices. The video conference provider then receives, from a second client device, a first indication to play back the pronunciation. Responsive to the first indication, the video conference may provide, to the second client device, the audio stream of the pronunciation. The video conference provider then outputs instructions to cause the second client device to play back the audio stream of the pronunciation.
