1. A method of recognizing speech, comprising:
- presenting an utterance to a speech recognition system;
determining, via the speech recognition system, that the utterance contains a particular expression, the particular expression capable of being associated with at least two different meanings;
splitting the utterance into a plurality of speech frames, each frame being assigned a predetermined time segment and a frame number;
indexing the utterance to i) a predetermined frame number, or ii) a predetermined time segment, the indexing identifying that one of the plurality of frames includes the particular expression; and
re-presenting the one of the plurality of frames including the particular expression to the speech recognition system to verify that the particular expression was actually recited in the utterance.

Abstract
A method for recognizing speech involves presenting an utterance to a speech recognition system and determining, via the speech recognition system, that the utterance contains a particular expression, where the particular expression is capable of being associated with at least two different meanings. The method further involves splitting the utterance into a plurality of speech frames, where each frame is assigned a predetermined time segment and a frame number, and indexing the utterance to i) a predetermined frame number, or ii) a predetermined time segment. The indexing of the utterance identifies that one of the frames includes the particular expression. Then the frame including the particular expression is re-presented to the speech recognition system to verify that the particular expression was actually recited in the utterance.
