The method getcwd() returns current working directory

of a process.
Google has a great Speech Recognition API. This API
converts spoken text (microphone) into written text
(Python strings), briefly Speech to Text. You can simply
speak in a microphone and Google API will translate this
into written text. The API has excellent results for English
language.
In python the with keyword is used when working with
unmanaged resources (like file streams).
PyAudio provides Python bindings for PortAudio, the
cross-platform audio I/O library. With PyAudio, you can
easily use Python to play and record audio on a variety of
platforms, such as GNU/Linux, Microsoft Windows, and
Apple Mac OS X / macOS.
The primary purpose of a Recognizer instance is, of course, to
recognize speech. Each instance comes with a variety of settings
and functionality for recognizing speech from an audio source.

r = sr.Recognizer()
Each recognize_*() method will throw
a speech_recognition.RequestError exception if the API is
unreachable. 

All seven recognize_*() methods of the Recognizer class require


an audio_data argument. In each case, audio_data must be an
instance of SpeechRecognition’s AudioData class.

Now, instead of using an audio file as the source, you will use the
default system microphone. You can access this by creating an
instance of the Microphone class.

mic = sr.Microphone()

listen() to Capture Microphone Input:

Now that you’ve got a Microphone instance ready to go, it’s time


to capture some input.

Just like the AudioFile class, Microphone is a context manager. You


can capture input from the microphone using
the listen() method of the Recognizer class inside of
the with block. This method takes an audio source as its first
argument and records input from the source until silence is
detected.

with mic as source:

... audio = r.listen(source)


Once you execute the with block, try speaking “hello” into your
microphone. Wait a moment for the interpreter prompt to display
again. Once the “>>>” prompt returns, you’re ready to recognize
the speech.

r.recognize_google(audio)

If the prompt never returns, your microphone is most likely


picking up too much ambient noise.

To handle ambient noise, you’ll need to use


the adjust_for_ambient_noise() method of the Recognizer class,
just like you did when trying to make sense of the noisy audio file.

with mic as source:

... r.adjust_for_ambient_noise(source)

... audio = r.listen(source)
