This example demonstrates Fliiq’s translation capability paired with text-to-speech — translate text and get native audio pronunciation delivered straight to Telegram.
The Setup
A user traveling to Hong Kong wanted to translate phrases on the go and hear how they should sound. They told Fliiq:
"I need a translator I can message on Telegram. I'll send English phrases
and I want back the Cantonese translation with audio pronunciation."
How It Works
The user already had a Telegram bot set up. Through the real-time Telegram listener, they message Fliiq directly:
User: How do I say "Where is the nearest MTR station?"
Fliiq translates the phrase, generates audio, and replies:
🔄 English → Cantonese
最近嘅地鐵站喺邊度?
(zeoi3 gan6 ge3 dei6 tit3 zaam6 hai2 bin1 dou6?)
"Where is the nearest MTR station?"
💡 Tip: 地鐵 (dei6 tit3) specifically means MTR/subway.
Locals will understand and point you in the right direction.
🎧 Audio pronunciation attached below.
The audio file follows immediately — generated by text_to_speech with the Cantonese_GentleLady voice and sent via send_telegram_audio.
Multi-Language Support
The same pattern works across languages. The agent picks the right TTS voice based on the target language:
English → Mandarin
User: Translate "I'd like to check in" to Mandarin
🔄 English → Mandarin
我想办理入住
(wǒ xiǎng bànlǐ rùzhù)
"I'd like to check in."
🎧 Audio attached.
Cantonese → English
Translation works in both directions:
User: What does 唔好意思 mean?
🔄 Cantonese → English
唔好意思 (m4 hou2 ji3 si1)
Means: "Sorry" / "Excuse me" (apologetic)
Used when you've inconvenienced someone — bumping into
them, being late, asking for a favor. More apologetic
than 唔該 which is transactional.
🎧 Cantonese pronunciation attached.

The Key Insight
Translation isn’t just text — pronunciation matters. By pairing the LLM’s translation ability with MiniMax text-to-speech and Telegram delivery, Fliiq becomes a pocket translator that you can hear. Send a message, get back a translation with audio you can play to a taxi driver, waiter, or shopkeeper.
For languages like Cantonese where tones completely change meaning, hearing the correct pronunciation is essential — not optional.
