You have to put “tl=yourLanguage” at query string.
For example http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=pt&q=Hello World! for portuguese voice and http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=en&q=Hello World! for english voice

Im using this program now for a while, but i can’t figure out how it knows what language to use. Sometimes it’s English, but most of the time Dutch (my language). It seems to have a will of its own How does this work?

I have created a PHP class wrapper with features such as unlimited characters (google limits to 100). The class also includes methods to include javascript and play characters in real time without any visable player.

Based on:
* Jquery
– Jplayer
– Hotkey
* Googles TTS API

Check it out @ pkj’s developer blog:

Also available to download.

@Cydork – Thanks for the bookmarklet.
@matto – Thanks for pointing out the typo. I have updated the code.
