I am trying to build an AI voice assistant for the Jordanian Arabic language. Fortunately, I found that the Azure supports the language (ar-JO) However, I don't know how to know whether or not a voice is compatible with the transcriber/language. By compatibility, does it just mean if the accent sound correct, or does it mean that only certain voice providers and voice IDs can be used for the ar-JO language? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1336377394050764821/1336377394302550128/image.png?ex=67a395ef&is=67a2446f&hm=26a9d8ce44f503ba995d928d9e9f5e095b13e99a5dd39843a6be9573a483de95&

@Ibrahim I'm glad to hear you're interested in building an AI voice assistant for the Jordanian Arabic language! Compatibility in this context refers to whether the voice provider and the specific voice model support the language and dialect you're interested in, which in your case is Jordanian Arabic (ar-JO). For Azure, and other providers, compatibility means that the voice model has been trained to recognize and transcribe the phonetics, accents, and nuances of the Jordanian Arabic language. It's not just about the accent sounding correct; it's also about the voice model's ability to accurately understand and process speech in that language. To ensure that a voice is compatible with the transcriber/language, you should: 1. Check the documentation for Azure's Cognitive Services, specifically the Speech Service, to see which voice models support Jordanian Arabic. 2. Look for any specific voice IDs that are designated for the ar-JO language. 3. Test the voice models with sample audio to ensure that the transcription accuracy meets your requirements. Remember, you can always visit your dashboard and navigate to the transcribers tab on the assistant page to see the languages supported by each provider and the available models. If you need more detailed information or assistance, please don't hesitate to ask support for more info on this.

@Ibrahim > By compatibility, does it just mean if the accent sound correct, or does it mean that only certain voice providers and voice IDs can be used for the ar-JO language? By compatibility here it means to ensure if some voice provider supports the ar-JO language.

Thanks Shubham. How do I know if a voice is supported by ar-JO?

You have to check the voice support, through the dashboard. It won't much of your time but yeah redudant effort.
