>My first thought when I tested this was "Wow, I want this in some of my applications, too!". Then I realized that it might not be that easy. I can't find any support for my language (Norwegian). I'm not really surprised, though, since we're only about 4.5 million people speaking the language. Too bad, because I can see some places where this can be a really useful and cool feature. Or maybe I should use the English version and let it speak Norwegian, and tell my users that "genie" has just moved here from the States - that's why he's speaking with an accent :-)

Hi Jens,

You should try to download the Norwegian MS Agent core components from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/c-frame.htm?/workshop/imedia/agent/default.asp

Check the combo boxes on that page, there are Norwegian core components. Speech engine does not have Norwegian version at the moment, but you may try to download British English TTS engine.

You should check also

for third-party speech engines compatible with MS Agent, they promise more and more languages.
