Hello Yuma, To switch languages on the fly, hold down Control-Option-Command then use the left or right arrow until you reach "Default voice (name)", then use the down arrow to change the voice. If you don't move to another setting, the next time you press these modifier keys, you will be on the Default Voice setting and when you press down arrow, you'll be on the voice you were using previously.
I do this all the time to switch between French and English.
