Hi,
is there a way to use Text-to-Speech in a different language than the Speech-to-text?
At the moment I can only use the same language for everything 😦

No, there isn't and i don't think there will be any time soon

it would be very interesting if tts could be set up for multiple languages with one default and take an optional language option for each text sent to the service.

e.g. to give a warning in multiple languages

TTS can already do that. Assist can't

#

tts.speak has a language parameter, just to clear things up

so @raven might work around the inability to set different languages for the two by simply(?) setting the language parameter on all tts calls then.
