Production-ready Tagalog to Urdu translation API

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

Tagalog (Austronesian > Malayo-Polynesian > Philippine) and Urdu (Indo-European > Indo-Aryan > Central) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

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