Getting started with speech recognition and python
I would like to know where one could get started with speech recognition. Not with a library or anything that is fairly "Black Box'ed" But instead, I want to know where I can Actually make a simple speech recognition script. I have done some searching and found, not much, but what I have seen is that there are dictionaries of 'sounds' or syllables that can be pieced together to form text. So basically my question is where can I get started with this?
Also, since this is a little optimistic, I would also be fine with a library (for now) to use in my program. I saw that some speech to text libraries and APIs spit out only one results. This is ok, but it would be unrealiable. My current program already checks the grammar and everything of any text entered, so that way if I were to have say, the top ten results from the speech to text software, than It could check each and rule out any that don't make sense.

If you really want to understand speech recognition from the ground up, look for a good signal processing package for python and then read up on speech recognition independently of the software.
But speech recognition is an extremely complex problem (basically because sounds interact in all sorts of ways when we talk). Even if you start with the best speech recognition library you can get your hands on, you'll by no means find yourself with nothing more to do.
