Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our language detection tool.

How much text do I need for accurate detection?

Even 5-10 words can often be identified correctly. For best results — especially with similar languages or dialects — provide 20+ words for more linguistic context.

Can it identify multiple languages in one text?

Yes. If your text contains code-switching (mixing languages in one sentence) or different languages in different paragraphs, our AI identifies the primary language and lists any additional ones.

Does it work with very short texts like tweets?

Yes, though confidence may be lower for very short or ambiguous texts. Single-word inputs that exist in multiple languages (like "no") may return uncertain results.

What scripts and writing systems are supported?

Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic, Devanagari, Chinese/Japanese/Korean (CJK), Thai, Greek, Hebrew, Hangul, and many more. Each is identified with the script name in the result.
