How to Change Copilot Voice Language in Windows 11
Why would you want to change Copilot’s voice language? Microsoft Copilot is an AI assistant that helps you with tasks and answers questions. It can talk to you using voice. By default, it tries to figure out what language you speak. But you can pick a specific language if you want.
Open the Copilot app or website, click Preferences, and select your desired language from the dropdown menu. You can also change this during a voice conversation by clicking the gear icon or within Microsoft Edge settings. Auto-detect is the default option.
What happens when you change the voice language? Copilot will speak to you in the language you choose instead of trying to auto-detect it.
This guide shows you how to change the language Copilot uses to talk to you. You can do this in Microsoft Edge, on the Copilot website, and in Windows 11.
Microsoft Copilot uses smart speech recognition and language processing to understand what you say and have conversations with you. You can use voice commands to talk to it naturally.
Right now, Copilot is set to auto-detect your voice language by default. But you can tell it to always use a specific voice language if you want.
