Overview
Polyglot voices can speak multiple languages.
Each polyglot voice has a language and a speaker number. For example,
"fr-FR-Polyglot-1" is speaker 1 in French, "en-US-Polyglot-1" is speaker 1
in American English, and "en-AU-Polyglot-2" is speaker 2 in Australian English.
Example 1. en-US-Polyglot-1 voice
Example 2. en-AU-Polyglot-1 voice
Example 3. es-US-Polyglot-1 voice
Example 4. fr-FR-Polyglot-1 voice
Upon request, polyglot capabilities are also available for a custom voice.
See the Supported Voices page for a complete list
of voices available in your language. Text-to-Speech
uses a specific voice from this list by setting the
VoiceSelectionParams
fields when you send a request to the API. See the Text-to-Speech
Quickstarts for details on how to send a
synthesize request.
