Needed: Easy guide on How to Switch Language Dictation on the Fly on Mac

By Maldalain, 20 January, 2022

macOS and Mac Apps

Well, I will appreciate it if anyone can provide an easy guide on how to switch the language of dictation on a Mac on the fly using keyboard shortcut.
Now I have to go to System Preferences and have to do the switching manually, keyboard shortcut should be much more convenient.
I did a Google search and all the results confirm that this is possible using AppleScript I hardly know anything about.
Much Appreciated!

A quick way using AppleScript is:

1. Open the "Script Editor" app
2. copy-paste the code
3. Select "Save As"
4. In the options, select Application.
5. Give it a name, i.e. "Language" and save it in your Applications folder.

Now, anytime you want to change the language, run the "Language" app
