CLDR likely/default locale: Latn; not audio/sole script—confirm project choice
Direction
Left to right

Albanian (shqip) review centers on this evidence: verify ë and ç, attached clitics, inflected names, and Geg- or Tosk-associated forms with a qualified reviewer. The Latn value for sq comes from CLDR likely-subtag expansion. It guides locale fallback; audio has no script, and Albanian still needs a project choice. Confirm the actual orthography and script with the project owner before normalizing any text. Orthographic targets include diacritics, word boundaries, proper names, number expressions, and code-switched terms. Project decision: which standard or documented dialect treatment the audience expects. Before batch editing sq, a reviewer must record which standard or documented dialect treatment the audience expects and attach a source timestamp to disputed text.

Where this workflow fits

  • Albanian interviews and oral histories
  • Albanian lectures and training recordings
  • Source-linked Albanian research review

Script choice and source-linked review for shqip

The Latn value for sq comes from CLDR likely-subtag expansion. It guides locale fallback; audio has no script, and Albanian still needs a project choice. Confirm the actual orthography and script with the project owner before normalizing any text. For interviews that move between regional speech and a chosen standard register, inspect verify ë and ç, attached clitics, inflected names, and Geg- or Tosk-associated forms with a qualified reviewer. Visually inspect diacritics, word boundaries, proper names, number expressions, and code-switched terms; record the project decision about which standard or documented dialect treatment the audience expects. Replay a complete clause around every uncertain name, quantity, interruption, or ending.

Frozen deployment boundary

This page is published only because its language is present in capability snapshot m10-2026-07-20.1. It does not extend that catalog or claim a measured accuracy score.

  • The sq hint maps to the reviewed sq provider root and preserves sq as the user's transcript language tag.
  • CLDR Latn is a likely/default locale hint, not an audio property; capability flags remain per language and model while editors confirm the project's real script and orthography.

Questions from the workflow

What must a Albanian editor decide before correcting the transcript?

case endings, attached short forms, and dialect-sensitive vocabulary must be resolved from the whole clause rather than an isolated sound. For Albanian, verify ë and ç, attached clitics, inflected names, and Geg- or Tosk-associated forms with a qualified reviewer. Project choice: which standard or documented dialect treatment the audience expects. Keep unresolved forms beside their source timestamps.
