Look for one of the French voices. An Italian voice, for example, is working well on my PC.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"&gt;&lt;SPAN class=spnmessagetext&gt;&lt;SPAN lang=EN-US style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: white; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;FONT color=#bbbbbb&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"&gt;&lt;SPAN class=spnmessagetext&gt;&lt;SPAN lang=EN-US style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: white; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"&gt;&lt;FONT color=#bbbbbb&gt;You can visit here first&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN lang=EN-US style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: white; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;SPAN class=spnmessagetext&gt;&lt;SPAN style="COLOR: white"&gt;&lt;FONT color=#99dddd&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.reallusion.com/crazytalk/ct_tts.asp"&gt;http://www.reallusion.com/crazytalk/ct_tts.asp&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;FONT color=#bbbbbb&gt;&lt;SPAN class=spnmessagetext&gt;and find FAQ&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;SPAN class=spnmessagetext&gt;2) How can I use a language other than English? &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;SPAN class=spnmessagetext&gt;&lt;FONT color=#bbbbbb&gt;A: Most TTS engines provide language add-on. Please visit their website to find more.
