Sample task

Record a consented bilingual sample with one technical term kept in its original language. Have fluent reviewers prepare the expected wording.

What to inspect

Check language switching, punctuation and whether the technical term becomes an unrelated word. Inspect timestamps around the switch.

How to decide

Evaluate accuracy on the languages and recording conditions you actually need. Do not generalize one successful language pair to all supported languages.
