How to Set the Language

Bulbul v3 supports 11 languages (10 Indian + English). It is a required parameter — always specify it using a valid BCP-47 language code.

The target_language_code parameter is required for every TTS request. It is primarily effective for handling language-specific processing of numbers, abbreviations, and special characters.
