Architecture for integrating and generating back-off grammars (BOG) in a speech recognition application for recognizing out-of-grammar (OOG) utterances and updating the context-free grammars (CFG) with the results. A parsing component identifies keywords and/or slots from user utterances and a grammar generation component adds filler tags before and/or after the keywords and slots to create new grammar rules. The BOG can be generated from these new grammar rules and can be used to process the OOG user utterances. By processing the OOG user utterances through the BOG, the architecture can recognize and perform the intended task on behalf of the user.
