How STT sends language to Turn Detection Module which makes Multilingual Model detect language?
t
Thanks for reaching out, Ali. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
The Speech-to-Text (STT) plugin sends language information to the Turn Detection Module for the Multilingual Model through the following process: 1. STT Configuration: The STT plugin is configured with a 
language
parameter. Setting it to 
"multi"
enables automatic language detection. 2. Language Detection: The STT plugin detects the language of the user's speech using the underlying STT service, such as Deepgram. 3. Communication to Turn Detection Module: The detected language is passed to the MultilingualModel, which processes the text based on the identified language for accurate turn detection. Example Configuration:
Copy code
session = AgentSession(
    turn_detection=MultilingualModel(),
    stt=deepgram.STT(model="nova-3", language="multi"),
    # ... other configurations
)
This setup ensures that the STT automatically detects the language and passes it to the MultilingualModel for effective turn detection.

Whatif i specify langugae my self will Mulitiligual Model Also works?
t
Absolutely! The MultilingualModel will work as long as you specify a language in the STT configuration—and that language is supported by the model. It covers English plus 13 other languages like Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, Turkish, Russian, and Hindi. Here’s a quick example of how to set it up:
Copy code
session = AgentSession(
    turn_detection=MultilingualModel(),
    stt=deepgram.STT(model="nova-3", language="es"),  # Just specify your language here
)
If you’d rather have it detect the language automatically, you can simply set the STT plugin’s language parameter to 
"multi"
. Just a heads-up: if the language you pick isn’t supported or if the STT plugin doesn’t correctly identify the language, the turn detection might not work quite right. Sources: LiveKit turn detector plugin | LiveKit Docs | LiveKit turn detector plugin | LiveKit Docs
