text-to-speech using google API or AVspeech

I need to use some kind of text-to-speech tool for pronouncing multiple languages. i've tried this code:

 AVSpeechUtterance *utterance = [AVSpeechUtterance speechUtteranceWithString:text];
 AVSpeechSynthesizer *syn = [[[AVSpeechSynthesizer alloc] init]autorelease];
[syn speakUtterance:utterance];

Which works fine, but since i want to use multiple languages it does not seem to have this function or what? How can i choose the language?

If the above is not possible i would like to use the Google api

How can i play this

This is really simple and the definetely has the function, try the following: 

utterance.voice = [AVSpeechSynthesisVoice voiceWithLanguage:@"en-gb"];

If you need to know all the languages avalible, put the following code somewhere:

NSArray* voices = [AVSpeechSynthesisVoice speechVoices];
NSLog(@"Voices: (%d) %@", voices.count, voices);

If you need further documentation on AVSpeechSynthesisVoice , then look at the following link:
