6 The zh-cn-XiaoxiaoDialectsNeural voice also supports the following secondary locales: zh-cn-shaanxi, zh-cn-sichuan, zh-cn-shanxi, zh-cn-anhui, zh-cn-hunan, zh-cn-gansu, zh-cn-shandong, zh-cn-henan, zh-cn-liaoning, zh-TW, nan-CN, yue-CN, and wuu-CN. To get the latest supported list of secondary locales, see the voice list API reference.

Multilingual voices

Multilingual voices can support more languages. This expansion enhances your ability to express content in various languages, to overcome language barriers and foster a more inclusive global communication environment.

Use this table to understand all supported speaking languages for each multilingual neural voice. If the voice doesn’t speak the language of the input text, the Speech service doesn't output synthesized audio. The table is sorted by the number of supported languages in descending order. The locale prefix indicates the primary locale. For example, for the voice en-US-AndrewMultilingualNeural, the locale prefix is en-US. The locale prefix is the first part of the voice name.

1 The neural voice is not available in Microsoft Azure operated by 21Vianet .

2 The neural voice is a multilingual voice in Azure AI Speech. All multilingual voices can speak in the auto-detected language of the input text in the default locale without using SSML. However, you can still use the <lang xml:lang> element to adjust the speaking accent of each language to set preferred accent such as British accent (en-GB) for English.

Voice styles and roles

In some cases, you can adjust the speaking style to express different emotions like cheerfulness, empathy, and calm. All prebuilt voices with speaking styles support style degree adjustment. You can optimize the voice for different scenarios like customer service, newscast, and voice assistant. With roles, the same voice can act as a different age and gender.

To learn how you can configure and adjust neural voice styles and roles, see Speech Synthesis Markup Language.

Prebuilt neural voices

Each prebuilt neural voice supports a specific language and dialect, identified by locale. You can try the demo and hear the voices in the Voice Gallery.

Important

Pricing varies for Prebuilt Neural Voice (see Neural on the pricing page). For more information, see the [Pricing](https://www.azure.cn/pricing/details/cognitive-services/ page.

Each prebuilt neural voice model is available at 24kHz and high-fidelity 48kHz. Other sample rates can be obtained through upsampling or downsampling when synthesizing.

The following neural voices are retired.

  • The English (United Kingdom) voice en-GB-MiaNeural is retired on October 30, 2021. All service requests to en-GB-MiaNeural will be redirected to en-GB-SoniaNeural automatically as of October 30, 2021.
  • The en-US-JessaNeural voice is retired and replaced by en-US-AriaNeural. If you were using "Jessa" before, convert to "Aria."
