# Text to Speech Voices

The table on this page describes the available voices, languages, and locales which can be used in various text to speech functions with the Voice API.

## Usage

You can implement the different languages and voices in the following ways:

1. Using the `locale` ID. For instance, to specify US English, use `en-US`. If you use only the `locale` ID, the voice used will be the locale default as listed in the table.
2. Using the `locale` ID and specifying gender. For instance, to specify a female voice in US English, use `en-US/female`. If you only specify the locale and gender, the voice used will be the locale/gender default as listed in the table.
3. Using the Voice ID. If you want to use a specific voice, use the Voice ID as listed in the table.


Note:
Accepted values are not case-sensitive. `th-th` and `th-TH` are both acceptable values. Additionally, `Joanna` and `joanna` are both acceptable values.
