URL: /tts/concepts/supported-languages

List of supported languages for Soniox Text-to-Speech AI.

## Overview

Soniox Text-to-Speech AI supports **speech generation in 60+ languages** with natural, expressive output, all powered by a **single, unified AI model.**

* **Any voice, any language** → Every [voice](/tts/concepts/voices) can speak in every supported language.
* **Consistent quality** → The same model delivers uniform pronunciation and prosody across languages.

All languages are available in both:

* **Real-time API** → Stream generated audio with low latency as text arrives.
* **REST API** → Generate audio from full text in a single request.

To use a language, pass its ISO code from the table below in the `language` field of your Text-to-Speech request.

To programmatically retrieve the full list of supported languages, use the [Get TTS models](/api-reference/tts/get_tts_models) endpoint.

**Note:** Some languages support only specific scripts:

* **Serbian (`sr`)** and **Bosnian (`bs`)**: Latin script only (not Cyrillic).
* **Kazakh (`kk`)**: Cyrillic script only (not Latin).
* **Chinese (`zh`)**: Simplified Chinese only (not Traditional Chinese).
