Abstract
A method for operating a speech dialogue system involves determining a vehicle context and information relating to the vehicle context and checking whether the information has a validity duration shorter than a predefined reference value and is thus to be graded as urgent. If the information is urgent, it is further checked whether the information has a validity value exceeding a predetermined threshold value for the user. If the threshold value is also exceeded, a speech output adjusted to the current communication status and directed towards a vehicle user is automatically carried out.
