Language Translator Using Google API in Python

Question

I have used this code from geeksforgeeks ( https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/language-translator-using-google-api-in-python/ ), I am trying to run it and it runs without any error, and it prints out:

Speak 'hello' to initiate the Translation !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

but when i say "hello" it does not recognize it and do not start listening for translation.

I have imported all the modules, tried updating every one of them, and also Im using a macbook m1 pro.

And heres the code:

import speech_recognition as spr
from googletrans import Translator
from gtts import gTTS
import os
 
 
# Creating Recogniser() class object
recog1 = spr.Recognizer()
 
# Creating microphone instance
mc = spr.Microphone()
 
 
# Capture Voice
with mc as source:
    print("Speak 'hello' to initiate the Translation !")
    print("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~")
    recog1.adjust_for_ambient_noise(source, duration=0.2)
    audio = recog1.listen(source)
    MyText = recog1.recognize_google(audio)
    MyText = MyText.lower()
 
# Here initialising the recorder with
# hello, whatever after that hello it
# will recognise it.
if 'hello' in MyText:
     
    # Translator method for translation
    translator = Translator()
     
    # short form of english in which
    # you will speak
    from_lang = 'en'
     
    # In which we want to convert, short
    # form of hindi
    to_lang = 'hi'
     
    with mc as source:
         
        print("Speak a stentence...")
        recog1.adjust_for_ambient_noise(source, duration=0.2)
         
        # Storing the speech into audio variable
        audio = recog1.listen(source)
         
        # Using recognize.google() method to
        # convert audio into text
        get_sentence = recog1.recognize_google(audio)
 
        # Using try and except block to improve
        # its efficiency.
        try:
             
            # Printing Speech which need to
            # be translated.
            print("Phase to be Translated :"+ get_sentence)
 
            # Using translate() method which requires
            # three arguments, 1st the sentence which
            # needs to be translated 2nd source language
            # and 3rd to which we need to translate in
            text_to_translate = translator.translate(get_sentence,
                                                     src= from_lang,
                                                     dest= to_lang)
             
            # Storing the translated text in text
            # variable
            text = text_to_translate.text
 
            # Using Google-Text-to-Speech ie, gTTS() method
            # to speak the translated text into the
            # destination language which is stored in to_lang.
            # Also, we have given 3rd argument as False because
            # by default it speaks very slowly
            speak = gTTS(text=text, lang=to_lang, slow= False)
 
            # Using save() method to save the translated
            # speech in capture_voice.mp3
            speak.save("captured_voice.mp3")    
             
            # Using OS module to run the translated voice.
            os.system("start captured_voice.mp3")
 
        # Here we are using except block for UnknownValue
        # and Request Error and printing the same to
        # provide better service to the user.
        except spr.UnknownValueError:
            print("Unable to Understand the Input")
             
        except spr.RequestError as e:
            print("Unable to provide Required Output".format(e))

from gtts import gTTS
from io import BytesIO
from pygame import mixer
import time

def speak():
    mp3_fp = BytesIO()
    tts = gTTS('KGF is a Great movie to watch', lang='en')
    tts.write_to_fp(mp3_fp)
    tts.save("Audio.mp3")
    return mp3_fp

mixer.init()
sound = speak()
sound.seek(0)
mixer.music.load(sound, "mp3")
mixer.music.play()
