Trusted by teams building global voice products

Production-ready Lithuanian to Chinese translation API

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

Lithuanian (Indo-European > Baltic) and Chinese (Sino-Tibetan > Sinitic) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

Lithuanian is written in Latin and Chinese in CJK, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Chinese text.

Same model across every language, including historically underserved ones.

Native-speaker Lithuanian STT accuracy

Lithuanian and Chinese through a single stream

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

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