Got a question for Google? Now you can ask it verbally in Bahasa Indonesia in even the most casual language.

The search engine giant just added Indonesian to its voice-search feature in the hope of improving user’s access to information, said Sandy Tantra, consumer marketing officer for Google Indonesia. It’s the latest Google technology to be adapted for this nation of 250 million people, where Internet access remains low but is increasing. Indonesian becomes the 46th language available under voice-search, which also includes French, Japanese, Turkish and Hebrew.
