Urdu to Dutch speech translation API

Stream Urdu (اردو) speech and get Dutch (Nederlands) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes ur to nl, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by

Production-ready Urdu to Dutch translation API

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

Urdu (Indo-European > Indo-Aryan > Central) and Dutch (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.

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