Production-ready Telugu to Afrikaans translation API

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

Telugu (Dravidian > South-Central Dravidian) and Afrikaans (Indo-European > Germanic > West Germanic) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

Telugu is written in Telugu and Afrikaans in Latin, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Afrikaans text.

Real-time Telugu to Afrikaans translation

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