Greece
 
Hi everybody, new to this forum.
Just a question. I am thinking of getting an Amazon Echo (Alexa). Will this work in Greece, I actually think it will because it will connect to internet, but will it be in English? Anybody in the know? Thank you x

Welcome to BE.

I suspect that the best place to ask these questions will be either in 'The Lab' or the Europe forum, but I can't see why the answer would be in anything other than the language you set it up to work in.

60 secs ago I had no idea what an Amazon Echo (Alexa) was.
Within half a minute, Google shows that the device 'speaks' US English, UK English and German. Apparently it doesn't comprehend all British English questions as easily as it does the American English.
It would be interesting if someone who has used it can positively confirm this.
Surely where you are using it should be irrelevant.

Well I'm going ahead with it. Once I have it set up in Glyfada I will let you know. It will be fun whichever language Alexa decides to speak 😉
