Voice Typing in Vietnamese

Vietnamese uses the Latin alphabet, but with a staggering number of diacritical marks (ă, â, đ, ê, ô, ơ, ư plus five tone marks per vowel). Typing all these accents manually is tedious. Zavi AI converts your spoken Vietnamese into fully accented text instantly, correctly handling all six tones and regional pronunciation differences between Northern, Central, and Southern Vietnamese.
