Norwegian to Albanian speech translation API

Stream Norwegian (Norsk) speech and get Albanian (Shqip) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes no to sq, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by

Production-ready Norwegian to Albanian translation API

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

Norwegian (Indo-European > Germanic > North Germanic) and Albanian (Indo-European > Albanian) 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.

Norwegian and Albanian through a single stream

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

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