as far as the above explaination is concerned, it was meant to provide an idea of whether it is the screen reader or the TTS that supports the application. the question you raised is regarding the support for language, not the application. in case of language, it is the tts which determines the compatibility or support for a specific language. if you consider the litarary sense of the example of mike in this regard, it will slightly differ in the technical term. still it very much resembles the significance of the example with that of the TTS. for instance, if the source code of eloquence becomes available under the new general public license for all to compile and/or modify the software just like various open source application, we can make the eloquence to read Hindi or any other language as well. I think the Vachaks developed by Him Prasad Gautam sir for several Indian regional languages are the recompiled version of the E speak TTS since it is also an open source application, and provides all sorts of flexibilities to modify its features according to our requirements. hence, to put it simple, you can consider the TTS as a mike, which has some compatibility issues in rendering certain sound outputs.
