Microsoft today released Windows 10 Build 14279 to Insiders in the Fast ring. With the latest build, the company is introducing a couple of new features, including a major feature: Cortana in more languages. With the latest build, Microsoft is bringing Cortana for Spanish (Mexico), Portuguese (Brazil) or French (Canada) languages. The company stated:

With this build, we are enabling Cortana for the Spanish (Mexico), Portuguese (Brazil) or French (Canada) languages! If you’re running the Windows 10 Insider Preview in these languages – give Cortana a try and let us know what you think. For each new market and language, the Cortana Team works to develop a custom experience that is relevant in each individual market and language. For instance, in Brazil – Cortana is fond of pasteis which is a common food found in many regions across Brazil. And in Mexico, we added local flavor to reflect the accent and language of the country. But our work is never complete and a big part of our development process is getting feedback from you. These are early versions that we will continue improve based on your feedback and we look forward to hearing more from you.

Are you glad that Microsoft is finally bringing Cortana to other languages? Let us know in the comment section below.
