Diacritics are critical, not optional
Romanian diacritics (ă, â, î, ș, ț) appear in 30-40% of text and change meaning. "Fata" vs. "fața" = "the girl" vs. "the face." Speak AI outputs precise diacritics every time.
Low-resource ASR landscape
Despite 24M speakers and EU membership, Romanian has limited high-quality speech training data. Most multilingual models underperform on Romanian compared to similar-sized Western European languages.
Slavic-Romance hybrid vocabulary
Romanian blends Latin grammar with Slavic, Turkish, and Hungarian loanwords. This unique lexical mix creates out-of-vocabulary problems for models trained on other Romance languages.
