1. Introduction

The widespread use of CALL (computer-assisted language learning) systems attests to their success in helping people improve their language and speech skills. CALL is predominantly concerned with addressing pronunciation errors in non-native speakers’ speech. Accurate mispronunciation detection, voice recognition, and accurate pronunciation evaluation are all activities that may be accomplished with CALL. Similarly, there are a plethora of studies on speech processing that have been implemented in numerous languages with the aim of facilitating language learning. Breakthroughs in AI and other areas of computer science have permitted extensive study of CALL. Due to the inability of their mouth muscles to articulate the intricacies of a particular language, speakers of different languages are prone to committing pronunciation problems while speaking a particular language. For this reason, academics often explore mispronunciation in English, Dutch, and French, while Arabic literary studies are scarce. However, Arabic studies have increased in recent years. Arabic, the most widely spoken language with approximately 290 million native speakers and 132 million non-native speakers, and one of the six official languages of the United Nations (UN), has two major dialects, Classical Arabic (CA) and Modern Standard Arabic (MSA). Classical Arabic is the language of the Quran, whereas Modern Standard Arabic is a modified form of the Quran used in daily conversation. In order to retain the right meaning of the phrases, the rules for pronouncing the Quranic language are quite well-defined.
Table 1 illustrates the most mispronounced Arabic letters in the field of pronunciation. Therefore, the effect of employing long short-term memory as a classifier blended with Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients as the feature extractor is observed. The LSTM network is well suited for speech recognition due to its ability to model the complex temporal relationships in speech signals, adapt to variations in the input data, and handle sequences of variable lengths.
