GOOGLE LAUNCHES VOICE SEARCH IN 8 ADDITIONAL INDIAN LANGUAGES

Google today announced the launch of voice search in eight additional Indian languages. Along with Hindi, the new languages include Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu.

Starting today, users will be able to use these languages to dictate queries in Gboard on Android as well as in Search through the Google App. These new languages will also be made available in the Cloud Speech API and will soon be extended to other Google apps and products, including the Translate app. Voice search in these new languages will be available in Google Search on iOS as well.

In order to perform a voice-based search, users will need to set their language in the Voice settings menu in Google app.

According to Google, using voice to dictate a message is up to three times faster than typing. Also, voice input for each of these languages is expected to get better over time, as more and more native speakers use the product.
