Basque to Swahili speech translation API

Stream Basque (Euskara) speech and get Swahili (Kiswahili) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes eu to sw, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by

Production-ready Basque to Swahili translation API

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

Basque (Language isolate) and Swahili (Niger-Congo > Atlantic-Congo > Bantu) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

Soniox preserves formatting in the translated transcript, including names, numbers, addresses, IDs, and domain-specific terms.

Turn it on by adding a translation block with source_language: "eu" and target_language: "sw". It runs on the same WebSocket and the same model, with no extra round trip.
