Abstract

A speech-processing system may provide access to one or more virtual assistants via an audio-controlled device. A user may leverage a first virtual assistant to translate a natural language command from a first language into a second language, which the device can send to a second virtual assistant for processing. The device may receive a command from a user and send input data representing the command to a first speech-processing system representing the first virtual assistant. The device may receive a response in the form of a first natural language output from the first speech-processing system along with an indication that the first natural language output should be directed to a second speech-processing system representing the second virtual assistant. For example, the command may be in the first language, and the first natural language output may be in the second language, which is understandable by the second speech-processing system.
