Method of switching between dialog systems
First Claim
1. A method of switching a user from one original dialog system (1), which communicates with the user using a speech recognition and/or speech output unit (6) to a target dialog system (2) which communicates with the user using a speech recognition and/or speech output unit (7) which can be set as desired to one of several languages, characterized in that, during switching, a language information parameter (P2) is sent to the target dialog system (2), which language information parameter represents a language in which the communication between the user and the original dialog system (1) has taken place, and, using this language information parameter, the speech recognition and/or speech output unit (7) of the target dialog system (2) is automatically set to a suitable language for communication with the user.

Abstract
The invention concerns a method of switching from one original dialog system (1), which communicates with the user using a speech recognition and/or speech output unit (6), to a target dialog system (2), which also communicates with the user using a speech recognition and/or speech output unit (7), whereby the language of the speech recognition and/or speech output unit (7) of the target dialog system (2) can be set. The original dialog system (1) transfers a language information parameter (P2) to the target dialog system (2), as a result of which the language which the original dialog system (1) used for communication with the user is specified. The target dialog system (2) uses this language information parameter (P2) to set the language of the speech recognition and/or speech output unit (7) for further communication with the user.
