# What is Hinglish?

Hinglish is the everyday mix of Hindi and English used in India, often switching language within a single sentence.

Callers say things like "kal subah meeting rakh lete hain" or "EMI due ho gaya hai". A voice agent that only handles pure Hindi or pure English misunderstands them.

Supporting Hinglish means both recognising mixed speech and replying in the same natural mix, including how numbers, dates and English brand names are said.

At Vyora: Vyora supports 11 Indian languages, and its script editor can write and translate agent scripts into Hinglish.
