The error is

INFO: main.c(420): Reading main lexicon: arctic20.dic
FATAL: "lexicon.c", line 166: Unable to open lexicon arctic20.dic for reading
; No such file or
directory

[
i saw arctic20.dic file in working directory.

i have downloaded arcticAll extension files from
https://github.com/romanows/Sphinx-4-Acoustic-Model-Adaptation-Data and
renamed the files as artic20

i have downloaded the wave files from
http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/cmu_arctic/packed/?C=M;O=A

cmu_us_bdl_arctic

English CMU ARCTIC database by BDL, a US English speaker.

I am unable to figure what part of the code is making mistake Any help on
figuring out this issue is appreciated.

Thanks.](http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net/wiki/tutorialadapt)
