All right, now I know there's a lot of
excitement out there about the new
multiple languages capability in Google
Home and the Google Assistant, so I just
want to show everyone how to do this in
the Google Home app and your Google
Assistant app. As long as you go to the
settings, this is more settings in Google
Home, and you go to the preferences, you
have the assistant language there. From
there you can add a language, and you can
see all of the different options that
you have. I'm choosing French, Canada, for
the start of our demo here. One thing to
note is once you choose that second
language, there is no capability of
choosing a third or fourth language. So
right now you're limited to two. Now what
I'm going to take you through are some
successful things and some not so
successful things. So here we go. Now this
first demo is the normal way that you
would set timers with your Google Home
if you were speaking English all the
time. Four minutes.
Sure four minutes, starting now.
Now keep in mind each time I use my
Google Home I use an English wake word,
and then as long as I speak the command
in one of the two languages that it is
now listening for, it will respond
appropriately. Third timer for 12 minutes,
starting now.
Now I think you could see there from that
demo what it's not capable of doing is
having you switch in between or in the
middle of a sentence. So you can't start
in English and end in French, or have French
in the middle. You could see there the
Google Home actually made a mistake
there. Now skipping over to Google
Assistant, here I am I'm speaking French
again, but what I couldn't
get to work with Google Assistant is
actually the acceptance of a number in French,
or
time in French, to actually have a timer
go through. Now that doesn't mean it
wasn't understanding French, it just
couldn't do this little piece. I think
there's still some things that Google is
going to have to work out with this new
feature.
Skipping over to something like the
Lenovo Smart Display, what's interesting
about a device like that is it's only in
the US, and so you're going to have to
think about what your device is
made for and if it's going to work
with the multiple languages capability.
What I'll tell you is in general, the
Lenovo Smart Display did not, and here's
your demo for it. I even switched to
German in the middle of this. According
to Wikipedia, monopoly is a board game
where it's loose.
Stellen Sie einen timer ein. Okay, for how long?
Sorry how long? Drei Minuten. I'm still
not sure how long your timer should run.
So there you have it, I think in general
the feature is very interesting, very
cool, but ultimately I don't think Google
has all of the bugs worked out just yet.
Some of the functionality is going to
work for you, but you can see that it's
spotty at best, and will really depend on
what type of device you're using. So
there you have it, thanks for watching,
we'll see you next time.
