Afrikaans to Greek speech translation API

Stream Afrikaans (Afrikaans) speech and get Greek (Ελληνικά) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes af to el, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by teams building global voice products

Production-ready Afrikaans to Greek translation API

Real Afrikaans speech includes accents, regional dialects, code switching, and domain-specific vocabulary. Soniox recognizes it in a single model and streams Greek while the speaker is still talking.

Afrikaans (Indo-European > Germanic > West Germanic) and Greek (Indo-European > Hellenic) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

Afrikaans is written in Latin and Greek in Greek, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Greek text.
