A method and system for recording, cataloging, and analyzing infant speech
in order to enhance speech development by producing lists of suggested
future words. The invention utilizes voice recognition software to update
a database table comprising words that the infant has spoken. Speech
analysis software then compares the previously spoken words in the
database table to a set of rules, which are used to analyze
consonant/vowel patterns and thereby identify trends in word usage. After
identifying trends in an infant's word usage, the speech analysis
software may then generate reports comprising trends in an infant's word
usage and also generate lists of suggested future words for the infant to
learn. The computer system then outputs the reports to a display screen,
electronic data file, network connection device, or printout.
