Production-ready Malay to Persian translation API

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

Malay (Austronesian > Malayo-Polynesian > Malay) and Persian (Indo-European > Iranian > Western Iranian) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

Malay is written in Latin and Persian in Arabic, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Persian text. Right-to-left output is handled directly in the token stream.

Real-time Malay to Persian translation

Soniox streams the Malay transcript and the Persian translation on the same connection, word by word, so meaning lands while the speaker is still talking.

Frequently asked questions

Add a translation block to your real-time request with source_language "ms" and target_language "fa". Soniox transcribes Malay and streams the Persian translation over the same WebSocket.
Is Malay to Persian translation real-time?
Yes. Soniox streams Persian while Malay is still being spoken, so meaning arrives mid-sentence instead of after the sentence ends.
What about translating Persian to Malay?
That direction is supported too. See the Persian to Malay page, or use two-way translation to run both directions in one session.
Does Soniox handle Latin to Arabic output?
Yes. Soniox outputs correctly scripted Persian text in Arabic, including right-to-left rendering, directly in the token stream.
Does Soniox handle Malay dialects and accents?
Yes. Soniox handles Malay dialects like Standard Malay, Kelantanese Malay, and Sarawak Malay in a single model, so Persian translation stays accurate across regions.
Which other providers support Malay to Persian?
Based on their public docs, OpenAI and Azure list both Malay and Persian for real-time translation. Soniox is the only one that also supports two-way live translation across 60+ languages.
How fast is Malay to Persian translation?
Soniox streams Persian as Malay is being spoken, with ultra-low latency. Translation arrives before the sentence ends.
