I can’t speak for the other voice assistants but I use Siri purely for setting timers. If I try to ask anything remotely more adventurous it’s a crapshoot. Something as simple as “Hey Siri turn the living room lights off” is often turned into a full discussion because it misheard “turn” and is too stupid to infer it from the rest of the sentence.

Try this: “Hey Siri, how do you say ‘what is the correct voltage for this outlet?’ in French?” The real time translation for the 5 or so supported languages is pretty incredible. I use it when I can’t think of the correct French to use if I have a worker visit my house (like an electrician, etc.)
