This new Jenny Multilingual voice (preview), with US English as the primary/default language, can speak 13 secondary languages, each at the fluent level: German (Germany), English (Australia), English (Canada), English (Canada), Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Mexico), French (Canada), French (France), Italian (Italy), Japanese (Japan), Korean (Korea), Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese (Mandarin, Simplified). To support the growing need for a single voice to speak multiple languages, particularly in scenarios such as localization and translation, a multi-lingual neural TTS voice is brought out in public preview. With the same voice persona across languages, organizations can keep their brand image more consistent.

Now more than ever, developers are expected to build voice-enabled applications that can reach a global audience. At the //Build 2021 conference, we are excited to announce several new features and improvements to TTS that address a variety of needs from customers globally.Ĭross-lingual adaptation (preview) enables the same voice to speak multiple languages Text to Speech (TTS), part of Speech in Azure Cognitive Services, enables developers to convert text to lifelike speech for more natural interfaces with a rich choice of prebuilt voices and powerful customization capabilities.
