From today all the Alexa devices will have a new multilingual mode. Earlier the users were asked to change the preferred language from the device language settings. Now you can talk to Alexa in Both Hindi as well as in English at the same time. For instance, if you ask Alexa about the festival of Diwali in Hindi, Alexa will reply in Hindi, e.g. “Alexa, Diwali ke liye kitne din bache hai?” and when you ask for any information in English Alexa will understand and respond in English e.g. “Alexa, why is Diwali celebrated”. The new feature will be helpful to those households where users speak both Hindi and English language. “You can ask Alexa to answer questions, play music, read the news, set timers and alarms, check the calendar, provide sports scores, control lights at home, use over 30,000 English skills and much more.
