How to Change Copilot Voice Language in Windows 11
Microsoft Copilot in Windows 11 uses a built-in voice feature to read answers out loud in over 20 different languages. Changing the voice language stops Copilot from guessing what you say and makes sure it always speaks the right language back to you.
You can set this up through your web browser or your main Windows settings so your voice chats sound natural every time.
