Spoken dialog device, spoken dialog method, and recording medium

[Problem] With conventional technology, it is impossible to appropriately support spoken dialog that is carried out in multiple languages. [Solution] A spoken dialog device includes: a receiving unit that detects a voice section from a start point to an end point of an input speech that is spoken in any of two or more different languages, and acquires speech data corresponding to the voice section; a language identifier acquisition unit that acquires a language identifier that identifies a language in which the input speech was spoken; a speech recognition unit that generates a text resulting from speech recognition, based on the input speech and the language identifier; a dialog control unit to which a text resulting from speech recognition and a language identifier are input, and that generates a different output sentence depending on a language identifier, while maintaining dialog history even when the language identifier is different from the previous language identifier; a speech synthesizing unit that generates a speech waveform based on the output sentence and the language identifier; and a speech output unit that outputs a speech that is based on a speech waveform generated by the speech synthesizing unit. With such a spoken dialog device, it is possible to appropriately support spoken dialog that is carried out in multiple languages.
