I suggest we add the following fields to the IDL for SpeechRecognitionResult in section 5.1: readonly attribute DOMString transcript; readonly attribute float confidence; readonly attribute any interpretation; Section 5.1.6 would also need the following additions: transcript - Shortcut to the transcript property on the first SpeechRecognitionAlternative (i.e. same value as item[0].transcript). confidence - Shortcut to the confidence property on the first SpeechRecognitionAlternative (i.e. same value as item[0]. confidence). interpretation - Shortcut to the interpretation property on the first SpeechRecognitionAlternative (i.e. same value as item[0]. interpretation). Such a scheme carries the requirement that every recognition result has at least one alternative (otherwise index out of bounds). But given that we already have a way to communicate error results, I think this is OK. In other words, I can't think of a case where a successful recognition would not contain at least one alternative. Thanks
