The `google` text-to-speech platform uses [Google Text-to-Speech engine](https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/speech.googleapis.com/overview) Text-to-Speech engine to read a text with natural sounding voices.
To enable text-to-speech with Google, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
tts:
- platform: google
```
Configuration variables:
- **language** (*Optional*): The language to use. Defaults to `en`.
A full configuration sample:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
tts:
- platform: google
language: 'de'
```
