Claim One:
1. A computer implemented method for evaluating potential confusion within a grammar structure for a set of statements to be used in speech recognition during a computing event, comprising: receiving a plurality of statements from within a grammar structure, each of the plurality of statements formed by a number of word sets; identifying a number of alignment regions across the plurality of statements by aligning the plurality of statements on a word set basis, wherein each aligned word set represents an alignment region; identifying a number of potential confusion zones across the plurality of statements, wherein each potential confusion zone is defined by words from two or more of the plurality of statements at corresponding positions outside the number of alignment regions; for each of the identified potential confusion zones, analyzing phonetic pronunciations of the words within the potential confusion zone to determine a measure of confusion probability between the words when audibly processed by a speech recognition system during the computing event; and generating a report to convey an identity of the potential confusion zones across the plurality of statements and their corresponding measure of confusion probability.
