Errors while running speech_recognition module

Question

I'm working on a project which uses the speech_recognition module.

    # Importing all the installed packages
    import speech_recognition as sr
    audio = sr.Recognizer
    try:
     
     with sr.Microphone() as source:
    voice = audio.listen(source)
    command = audio.recognize_google(voice)
    print(command)
  finally:
pass

I'm getting this error

I tried all the possible solutions and yet I get the same error again and again I'm using the PyCharm editor.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

except:   command = command.lower()

Please help me. Thanks!

Here i have the speech recognition code snippet which i have used in one of my code, i hope it will work for yours also:

import speech_recognition as sr

rObject = sr.Recognizer() 
audio = '' 
with sr.Microphone() as source: 
    print("Speak...")   
    audio = rObject.listen(source, phrase_time_limit = 0) 
    print("Stop.")
    try: 
        text = rObject.recognize_google(audio, language ='en-US') 
        print("You : "+ text)  
    except: 
        speak("Could not understand your audio...PLease try again !") 

Try and checkout !

There is socket as well as command = command.lower()
