Based on the sources, for your Hindi agent that’s sometimes speaking in a different language, you should verify the `language` parameter in your agent configuration.[(1)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent)[(2)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent) The `language` parameter specifies what language and dialect the speech recognition operates in.[(1)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent)[(2)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent) For Hindi, you need to set `language` to `"hi-IN"`.[(1)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent)[(2)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent) When creating or updating your agent, ensure this parameter is correctly set: ```json { "language": "hi-IN" } ``` [(1)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent)[(2)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent) If unset, the default value `"en-US"` will apply, which could explain why your agent occasionally speaks English instead of Hindi.[(1)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent)[(2)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent) To update your existing agent with Agent ID `agent_a2f28109f405f7c21f2696e225`, you can use the Update Voice Agent API endpoint with the correct language parameter.[(1)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent) Additionally, consider using `boosted_keywords` to bias the transcriber model toward Hindi-specific names, brands, or terms that are commonly used in your conversations.[(1)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent)[(2)](https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent) ---
