title: "Assist - Default Sentences"
---
Home Assistant comes with built-in sentences [contributed by the community](https://github.com/home-assistant/intents/) for [dozens of languages](https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/voice/intent-recognition/supported-languages).
These sentences allow you to:
* **Turn entities on and off**
* *"turn on the living room light"*
* *"turn off ceiling fan"*
* **Open and close covers**
* *"Close the garage door"*
* *"Open kitchen window"*
* **Set the brightness and color of lights**
* *"Change kitchen lights brightness to 50%"*
* *"Set bed light to green"*
In addition to individual entities, commands can target **areas**:
* *"turn on all lights in the living room"*
* *"open windows in the kitchen"*
* *"change kitchen brightness to 50%"*
* *"set bedroom lights to green"*
Entity [aliases](/docs/assist/aliases) are also matched so multiple names can be used, even in different languages.
You can extend the built-in sentences or [add your own](/docs/assist/custom_sentences) to trigger any action in Home Assistant.
