You will not be able to see any errors because we have passed any exception raised by the Interpreter.
To see all of them, Change your code from,

except:

Thank you verymuch

For anyone who is stuck at "Say something" with no errors, try this:
r = sr.Recognizer()
r.energy_threshold = 500
r.energy_threshold doesn't have to be 500, you can experiment with much higher values. It didn't work for me until I set it to 2000, and it works up to almost 10000 for me.

Awesome!
Wish you good luck with your future visions!!

[johnjohnson]

I found following code, allowed me to use internal laptop microphone:

import speech_recognition as sr

r = sr.Recognizer()
r.energy_threshold = 2000


with sr.Microphone() as source:
print('Say Something')
audio = r.listen(source)

try:
print("Speech was:" + r.recognize_google(audio))
except LookupError:
print('Speech not understood')

You helped me install pip on cmd when I was struggling so I this video got recommended to me. I did not think it was going to work and then it didin't, but then I installed pyaudio and boom! It was up and running. Not perfect but pretty good for 10 lines of code. Thank you so much! I can't believe your channel only has 1.2K followers!
