The Microsoft Speech Platform SDK 11 provides support for 26 languages for both speech recognition and speech synthesis (TTS or text-to-speech). You must download and install a language pack for each language that you want to program against in your applications. There are separate language packs for speech recognition and speech synthesis. The version of the language packs that you use for development, for example version 11.0, must match the version of the Server Runtime that you installed.
Use the following links to download language packs that match your Speech Platform Runtime version.
