Claim 4:
5. A method of modifying a wakeword set of a speech- enabled device, comprising:
receiving an utterance;
parsing the utterance into a natural language request and a speech audio segment, wherein the natural language request instructs the device to accept the speech audio segment as a new wakeword;
using automatic speech recognition to map the new wakeword to a phonetic sequence; and
configuring a wakeword spotter to recognize the phonetic sequence by:
dividing the phonetic sequence into a sequence of two or more successive partial phonetic segments;
selecting a plurality of corresponding factory-installed partial wakeword spotters; and
assembling sequentially the factory-installed partial wakeword spotters into the wakeword spotter for the phonetic sequence.
