Setup
To use Cortana, all these settings have to be set to the same language:
Languages (this is your device language)
Speech language
Country or region
To confirm that your settings are correct or to make a change:
Open Settings. Select Time & language, then Region & language.
Check the Language (set as default) setting for your Windows display language. To get a new language, select Add a Language, then choose one from the list. It may take a few minutes for the language pack to load. If you remove a language, you can always add it back later.
Check the Country or region setting. Make sure that the country selected corresponds with the Windows Display language set in the Language setting.
Go back to Settings > Time & language > Speech and make sure that the Speech language setting is aligned with the previous settings. If the language you want isn’t available, follow the steps on the next tab to add it.
Sign out and then sign back in for the new settings to take effect.
Note: For mobile devices, make sure that you have the correct settings for Language, Region and Speech under Settings > Time & language.
Go to Language > Add language to add a new language.
Go to Speech > Add a language to add a new speech language.
Language packs
Not all options are available for all regions and languages. Some languages might require you to manually download a speech language pack.
Select the Start button, then select Settings > Time & language > Region & language.
Select the language, then Options.
Under Speech, select Download. It may take a minute or two for the speech pack to load.
Sign out and then sign back in for the new speech pack to be added to speech options.
Go back to Time & language, select your new language, then Set as Default.
On Settings > Time & language > Speech, make sure that the Speech language setting is aligned with the previous settings.
Sign out and then sign back in for the new settings to take effect.
