Alexa is learning new languages, will you teach her yours? Join a community of thousands of multilingual speakers who are helping Alexa take on languages she doesn’t yet understand. With millions of phrases already collected across 150+ languages, Alexa is well on her way to becoming more fluent! What language do you want to teach with Cleo?

Just tell Alexa to open Cleo and she’ll ask you in English to speak phrases in your chosen language or dialect. Keep your language and translation skills fresh, make it interactive with family & friends, earn badges, climb the ranks, and earn Alexa super-user status as you help her absorb new languages!

Getting started:
1. Say “Alexa, open Cleo.” (Pronounced: KLEE-oh)
2. Alexa will describe how the skill works and ask you for the language you speak. Say the name of your language in English (e.g. “French”, “Mandarin”, “Hindi”).
3. Alexa will ask you to confirm the language and will move into the first learning round.
4. During each round, Alexa will ask you to say at least five things in your language. Wait for her to prompt you and then go ahead and respond in the language you specified. She may ask you to say something specific or to just say anything at all. The type of round will differ each time you play.
5. Aim to speak as naturally as possible in your language. It’s better to say something naturally than to translate.
6. To close Cleo during a learning round, just say “Alexa, stop.”
7. Want to see how you stack up against the competition? Just say, “Alexa, ask Cleo how am I doing?” Play Cleo often to earn badges and climb up the ranks!
