Ontology may be used in the context of elearning to capture knowledge about learning activities and subjects. We present a system that supports an automatic speech recognition and generation between users and an agent based application on the basis these ontologies. The system is realized taking advantage of the JADE agent development framework and of the Java Speech API and has been experimented both in Italian and English.
