You should be following the instructions in the documentation: [Speech - Thunkable Docs](https://docs.thunkable.com/speech)

I recommend right-clicking on the “recognized speech” block and choosing Show Advanced Block. Then you will see this:

You can check for an error and assign the green error block to a label. If there is no error, then assign the green speech block to a label (or use different labels for each green block).
