I haven't tried personally, but I believe you can.

(Sorry, I am not sure but you can try!)

You will need to set English as a system language on your device.
And you can call a macro in English.

Say to Alexa:
"Run [macro name] in MacroDroid"

thanks for the reply, we hope that you can also customize it in my language see Italian for convenience
 
Yes.
You can integrate an Amazon Echo Show or Echo device with Macrodroid, in any language, no Skill required.
Just create a routine on Alexa and finish by sending a notification.
The smartphone, with Macrodroid, must also have the Alexa APP installed.
The notification sent by Alexa, and received on the smartphone, will serve to trigger actions on the Macrodroid.

Yes. Like previously stated you can trigger a macro from an Alexa notification, but to trigger an Alexa routine I use web monkeys. You create a web hook called a monkey and add that to your Alexa. So I created a web monkey that is called turn on lights. I'm md, I have a geofence trigger for the house. If you enter the fence and it's dark then the trigger does an http get on the web hook. The web monkey skill then activated the routine and turns the front porch light and the living room lights on.

Hope that helps.
