The speechend event of the Web Speech API is fired when speech recognized by the speech recognition service has stopped being detected.
Syntax
Use the event name in addEventListener():
js
addEventListener("speechend", (event) => { })
Alternatively, assign to the event handler property of the interface:
js
onspeechend = (event) => { }
Event type
A generic Event with no added properties.
Examples
You can use the speechend event in an addEventListener method:
js
const recognition = new (
window.SpeechRecognition || window.webkitSpeechRecognition
)();
recognition.addEventListener("speechend", () => {
console.log("Speech has stopped being detected");
});
Or use the onspeechend event handler property (but note that this replaces other event listeners added using onspeechend, if any):
js
recognition.onspeechend = () => {
console.log("Speech has stopped being detected");
};
