Automatic phrase expansion

language-model

#1

Hi all.

I’ve been developing Alexa skills using the alexa-app framework from Matt Kruse.

It has one nice feature that i’m missing in Jovo: automatic phrase expansion.

Example:
In the model i create a phrase like this:
“i {want to|would like to} {change|edit} {my|the} {settings|preferences}”

And it automatically expands to:
i want to change my settings
i would like to change my settings
i want to edit my settings
i would like to edit my settings
i want to change the settings
i would like to change the settings
i want to edit the settings
i would like to edit the settings
i want to change my preferences
i would like to change my preferences
i want to edit my preferences
i would like to edit my preferences
i want to change the preferences
i would like to change the preferences
i want to edit the preferences
i would like to edit the preferences

It would be really nice to see this in a future version of Jovo.

The node module that does this is called “alexa-utterances”

Thank you! And welcome to the Jovo Community Forum :wave:

Great suggestion. We will add it to the list. Until then: The folks at 169 Labs (@timkahle) have created an utterance expander, which can also be exported as Jovo Language Model.

You can find it here: https://www.utterance-generator.com/
