How to make Alexa multilingual?

I’d like to set my Alexa’s language to English and Spanish making it multilingual. I've tried to look for answers online but there seems to be no official guide or steps to do this.

  1. First, make sure your Alexa app is updated to its latest version
  2. Launch the Alexa App
  3. Tap the Menu icon
  4. Choose Settings
  5. Select Device Settings
  6. All Devices screen should appear, Select the Alexa device you wanted to make multilingual
  7. A screen now displays for that specific Alexa device, tap on Setting (Gear icon) on the upper right corner
  8. The Device Settings screen specific for the Alexa device chosen appear. Scroll down and select Language
  9. Select the Multilingual option you prefer (Two languages w/ a forward slash separating them), as you prefer, the English/Español option.
  10. ‘Change Alexa’s Language’ pop up should appear (may contain message saying that the selected language does not match your Amazon account and says that by proceeding some features may not work), just press Okay
  11. A screen that says updating the language may take a few minutes, just press Okay.
  12. There should be a message saying that it’s updating right below the selected Multilingual option you’ve selected, just wait for it to get finished
  13. If the chosen Multilingual option now has a checkmark and ‘updating’ status is gone, then the setup is finished. Alexa can now recognize and speak the Multilingual option selected.
  14. Take note that if you have multiple Alexa devices, you’ll have to do this process for each one of them.

It is important to note that only predefined language pairs are available with this setting.
**For exampleGerman - FrenchGerman - EnglishEnglish - Spanish
Unfortunately, there is currently no possibility to compose an individual language pair.
