Details:

We’re introducing a new organizer-level control that no longer requires all meetings to have one common spoken language to be set across all participants. Meeting organizers with Copilot or Teams Premium licenses will see a new control in meeting options called “Enable multilingual speech recognition.” When this is enabled before a meeting, each meeting participant will be able to set their own spoken language during the meeting, and the meeting transcript can accurately reflect each participant’s language of choice.

Imagine you're at a large international conference where attendees speak different languages. In the past, everyone had to agree on one language for the entire event, which could be challenging and sometimes led to misunderstandings. Now, picture a new system where each person can wear a headset that automatically translates the conversation into their preferred language. This way, everyone can follow along comfortably, regardless of the language being spoken by others.

This is similar to the new feature in Microsoft Teams. Previously, in virtual meetings, everyone had to agree on one common language for the transcription service to work. Now, with the introduction of a new control for meeting organizers who have Copilot or Teams Premium licenses, each participant can choose their own spoken language. This means that during a meeting, the transcription can accurately reflect what each person is saying in their chosen language, just like having that personalized translation headset at the conference.

This feature allows for a more inclusive and seamless communication experience, making it easier for participants from different linguistic backgrounds to engage and understand each other without the barrier of a single language requirement. It's like giving everyone their own personal translator, ensuring that the conversation flows smoothly and everyone is on the same page.
