You can only find VB samples because you would only use SAPI from a scripting language, like VBScript. In C# you use the classes in the System.Speech.Recognition namespace. It contains managed class wrappers around the SAPI interfaces. The equivalent of ISpeechPhraseElement is the RecognizedUnitWord class. Instances of which you get out of RecognitionResult.Words property.
