Abstract

A method for providing multilingual speech output in an automated spoken dialog system includes setting up a connection between a telecommunications terminal device and the spoken dialog system. In response to a connection setup, a multilingual speech output is provided that includes an output of a first speech sequence in a first language and at least one second speech sequence in at least one second language different from the first language. The first speech sequence and the at least one second speech sequence are output, at least in part, simultaneously.
