Thank you Anne for this really helpful hint. I switch between english and 
Italian and have one other question. Since I read more slowly in Italian than 
in english, is there any way to set the Italian chosen voice to a slower rate? 
Now I need to switch both the voice and the rate. Would love to eliminate the 
rate change step.

Many thanks for any suggestions.

Best,

Paul

Hello Afik,

On the Mac, the VO keys are either Control and Option or the Caps Lock key. So, 
pressing VO plus the Command key puts you into the VoiceOver Voice rotor. If 
you press either the left or the right arrow key, you will circulate through 
the various parameters that you can change, such as Rate or Volume. You should 
leave this rotor set to Voice, which will say “Voice” and the name of the voice.
You then press VO-Cmd-Down Arrow to change the voice. The first voice you find 
will be the voice you used right before the current voice. So, if you only use 
Hebrew and English, VO-Cmd-Down Arrow will toggle between these two languages.
I do this all the time between English and French.

Cheers,

Anne

Hello Afik,

You’re right that there’s no automatic language switching on the Mac. However, 
you can switch languages quickly with VO-Cmd-Down Arrow as long as you always 
leave the rotor set to Default Voice.

Cheers,

Anne

Hello all.

I have MacBook Air 13 inch. On the iPhone SE that I have when VO read the text 
in English the English voice talk, and when its texts in Hebrew  the Hebrew 
voice talks. In the Mac, its  not like on the phone. The Hebrew voice read all, 
Hebrew, English, and so on, and there is no Automatic language switching.
I really don’t know why, but I must find a solution because its so annoying.

Any ideas?
