[WillyZeBad]

stupid can't say seoul properly lol

[shittiboy]

Seoul is unlucky enough to have nearly the same pronunciation with that...

[fortalbrz]

I just have to agree with device: the user is saying "SOUL" all the time!!! And

the sound of "seoul" are so different from "soul"... I think that it "seoul" and "soul" may sound alike for native korean speakers...

How about to change this topic title from "seoul is not in google voice search" to "korean guy can not pronunce 'seoul' in english"? lol

[sadfountains]

you should say seoul korea

I wonder what would happen if he said "Seoul Korea." It would most likely show Seoul, right? :P

I think Seoul is probably in google voice search but the problem is that it sounds exactly the same as the English word 'soul' so thats what the phone thinks you are searching for. It's not a case of the leaving out Seoul, it's just that more people will search for the words 'soul' than 'Seoul'. It most likely happens to other places where the name is the same as a different word.

[mjansche]

@necrone666 That's exactly right. In English voice search, "soul" is more frequent than "Seoul", so "soul" is the top result, but "Seoul" can still be found as the second result when you tap on the search box to pull down the list of alternative recognition results. In Korean voice search, "Seoul" is more likely and is indeed the top result.

^^b & ㅠㅠ

[zaeku]

구글 음성 검색. 물론 서울 있습니다. 제 동영상을 확인해 주세요.

[nemobox70]

@zaeku 아이폰이 아니신 것 같은데요?

[zaeku]

@nemobox70 네 넥서스원의 구글음성검색입니다.

[nemobox70]

@zaeku 네, 확인했습니다. 넥서스원이 훨씬 빠르고 정확한 것 같습니다. ^^

[zaeku]

@nemobox70 구글이 만들다보니 검색이나 웹접근성은 확실히 좋은 것 같습니다. 최근 OS업데이트를 통해 속도도 꽤 빨라졌구요.^^ 하지만 아이폰도 상당히 좋은 기기입니다. 뛰어난 사용자 경험과 다양한 앱은 독보적이죠.

[zaeku]

@nemobox70 제가 video response를 걸었는데 확인해 주시겠어요?

[girloflan2]

웃기다 ㅋ

[mcskeleton1]

ㅋㅋ결국 서울은 인식실패인가

[djkim67]

대박이지만. 우울하다 !!! 애플넘들 우리 무시하는거 느껴지지않는가? 몇년전 유명 박물관에 한국어 트랜스서비스 않되던것처럼 ...

[9thCreator]

세울 이라고 하면 될까요?

[hoppingcloud9]

LMFAO

[mjansche]

The main problem is that "Seoul" and "soul" sound pretty much the same when pronounced in English, so it's hard for the English speech recognizer to tell them apart. If you use Korean voice search, then 서울 gets recognized as expected. In English, which you're using here, if you just say "Seoul", the first result is "soul", but "Seoul" should be in the drop-down list of alternative search results. Alternatively, you can also say "Seoul Korea" or "map of Seoul Korea" etc.
