Not standard Dutch
Most ASR models train on Netherlandic Dutch. Flemish pronunciation, vocabulary (French loanwords like “kot,” “schoon”), and intonation cause systematic misrecognition. Speak AI supports nl-BE specifically.
Code-switching with French
In Brussels and border regions, speakers mix French phrases into Flemish speech. Speak AI handles this bilingual reality.
Regional sub-dialects
West Flemish, East Flemish, Brabantian, and Limburgish each have distinct features. West Flemish is barely intelligible to Netherlands Dutch speakers.
