Production-ready Malay to Galician translation API

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

Malay (Austronesian > Malayo-Polynesian > Malay) and Galician (Indo-European > Romance > Western Romance) 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.
