Alexa for bilingual family

Do any two language families use Alexa? Can it work with two languages? Or are my DSC going to have to step up their English language skills? Maybe that's a good thing!

Sorry I can't help but I am interested in the answer. I live in a bi lingual family in Germany. My German (IT expert) dp refuses to get Alexa. He thinks his laptop can do all the same things. I am the paranoid type who would make up silly stories just to see what happens. So no intention of getting it here but hope it's ok to jump on your thread to see the answers.Smile

I'd be interested too. More because playing with Google Assistant, and it's completely pants with two languages (to be fair it tells you it can only work in one at a time ...).

We don't have an Alexa but we do have endless fun getting DH (not an English-speaker) to ask Siri for songs in English and then laughing at what it pulls up.

I put it into French and she understood when I spoke English but replied in French. Now to try the opposite.
