Copilot's Macedonian Language Support

Hi,

 

I have been using Copilot and noticed that, despite Macedonian not being listed as a supported language, the bot still responds reasonably well. It appears that when trained on a substantial amount of data, Copilot can handle Macedonian by focusing on keywords rather than full sentences.

 

Given this, I believe that enhancing Copilot's support for Macedonian should be feasible and beneficial. Is there a possibility to prioritize this language in future updates? Additionally, could we expect improved sentence-level understanding and response accuracy as more data becomes available?

 

Thank you for considering this suggestion. I look forward to your feedback.

Best regards,


Nikola

    It's interesting to hear about your experience with Copilot understanding Macedonian!

    While Copilot doesn't officially support Macedonian yet, it's possible it can grasp your intent based on keywords like you mentioned.

    Here's what we know about future updates:

    Prioritization: There's no official information on prioritizing specific languages, but hopefully with enough user feedback, Macedonian could be considered.
    Improved understanding: As Copilot is exposed to more data, it's generally expected to improve its ability to understand code across languages, including Macedonian.

    Even though Macedonian isn’t officially supported in Copilot Studio, I’ve found that it still works quite well as long as the prompts and responses are structured correctly. The AI can understand and generate answers in Macedonian if the right approach is used, ensuring that interactions remain functional and meaningful. That being said, native support would still be a great addition, making the experience even smoother and more reliable. Hopefully, this is something Microsoft considers in future updates
