Direction
Left to right

Faroese (føroyskt) review centers on this evidence: verify inflected endings, ð and accented vowels, compounds, place names, and pronunciations that do not map transparently to spelling. The Latn value for fo comes from CLDR likely-subtag expansion. It guides locale fallback; audio has no script, and Faroese 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 Faroese spelling is retained for dialectal pronunciation and Danish names. Before batch editing fo, a reviewer must record which Faroese spelling is retained for dialectal pronunciation and Danish names and attach a source timestamp to disputed text.

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 fo hint maps to the reviewed fo provider root and preserves fo 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.

For Faroese, verify inflected endings, ð and accented vowels, compounds, place names, and pronunciations that do not map transparently to spelling. Project choice: which Faroese spelling is retained for dialectal pronunciation and Danish names. Keep unresolved forms beside their source timestamps.
