In this paper we discuss how adding speech recognition (SR) affected the development of a computer-based language training program - how our understanding of the capabilities and limitations of the recognizer evolved and how this understanding affected design and implementation decisions. The program developed is called German Express, it is a CD-ROM based, interactive, language-training course.
