Alexa is fun to talk to. Its witty answers are always amusing. But they can be even more interesting if you change the language. English is the default language for Alexa on a new Echo device in India, but the Amazon voice assistant can speak more languages. Hindi is one of them. You can talk to Alexa in Hindi and make it perform tasks that it usually does when talked to in English. But while talking to Alexa in Hindi is fun, do note that some functionalities may not be available for languages other than English. news Also Read: Amazon Alexa AI Plus is here; Know pricing and how it works
