Hello Lutz, > yes espeakup can speak german too. > As Root: > nano /etc/default/espeakup< enter> > voice=de Yes I know this. My question refered to the files located under /speakup/i18n/. For example in the characters file you can find something like "39 one" so that Espeak with the german voice speaks "one" with a german accent instead of "eins" when I type "1". I could correct this manually but maybe such files already exist in different languages so the work wouldn't be necessary. Best regards Eric
