Dutch to Malayalam speech translation API

Stream Dutch (Nederlands) speech and get Malayalam (മലയാളം) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes nl to ml, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by

Production-ready Dutch to Malayalam translation API

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

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

Dutch is written in Latin and Malayalam in Malayalam, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Malayalam text.

Dutch and Malayalam through a single stream

Dutch to Malayalam translation is built on top of Soniox Speech-to-Text API. Every spoken word is transcribed, and Malayalam translation streams mid-sentence in the same labeled token stream.

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