Re: [orca-list] Quick way to switch TTS language

[chrys <chrys linux-a11y org>]

Howdy,

You can define multiple profiles with your needed languages. orca 
provide an (unbound) shortcut to cycle the profiles. In profiles you 
cannot only choose different languages but different speed, pitches and 
any other  setting of your need for the specific language.

cheers chrys
