I really like to browse the web in english and in my mother language german. It would be very nice to switch between different languages more quickly.

Well, I think that there should be named config profiles which could be changed easily and contain settings for various situations. These profiles should have configurable hotkey for easy activation.

Agreed NVDA should have a feature to dynamically change the language based on the language of text in a document. However this will definitely not be seen in 0.6 p2. Can I suggest for now to use the synth settings ring. So when on a page you want to read in another language, use NVDA + control + left/right arrow to choose the voice parameter to change (you would want to choose the voice), and then use NVDA + control + up/down arrow to change that setting (choose the voice you want to use). If using eSpeak and if you are on the default english voice, I think German is 3 voices down.

Was this ticket intended to request fast switching between languages or automatic language detection and switching?

Replying to jteh:

fast switching between installed languages would be very nice.

Auto language switching #845 has been implemented for NVDA 2011.3. As pointed out above, the synth settings ring can be used to easily manually switch voices. Also, some synths now may support a separate "language" setting, which should also appear in the synth settings ring I believe.
Due to implementation of auto language switching and addition of a "language" setting for some sinths, I am closing as fixed.
Changes:
Milestone changed from None to 2011.3
