A speech recognition system uses, in one embodiment, an extended phonetic dictionary that is obtained by processing words in a user's set of databases, such as a user's contacts database, with a set of pronunciation guessers. The speech recognition system can use a conventional phonetic dictionary and the extended phonetic dictionary to recognize speech inputs that are user requests to use the contacts database, for example, to make a phone call, etc. The extended phonetic dictionary can be updated in response to changes in the contacts database, and the set of pronunciation guessers can include pronunciation guessers for a plurality of locales, each locale having its own pronunciation guesser. |
