Language and Localization Considerations

Localization is the process of adapting a speech application project for use with other languages, to be used in different locales around the world.

To facilitate the localization of Avaya Dialog Designer speech projects and applications, Avaya designed Dialog Designer to separate language-related functions and components from the logic functions and components. This fact means you can create a single application, using a single call flow and business logic, but to easily and quickly adapt it for use with other languages.

This section describes all aspects of language and localization administration in Dialog Designer. It contains the following sections:

• Language Implementation in Dialog Designer

• Administering Project Languages

• Administering Automated Speech Recognition (ASR) Languages

• Administering Text-to-Speech (TTS) Languages

• Administering Localization Bundles

• Using a Localization Bundle's Standard Phrasesets
