# Languages

> Every language code, and the engines that transcribe and translate it.

VOD Express transcribes speech in 90 languages and translates into
183. This page is
generated from the same catalogue `GET /enums/languages` answers; with a key, that call is the
current list.

- **Spoken** lists the `transcription` engines for media in that language. A language with
  none can be a translation target but not the spoken language.
- **Target** lists the translation `engine`s that translate into it. Left out of a
  translation, the recommended one is used.
- A **dub** also needs a voice that speaks the language: see
  [Choosing a voice](/vod-express/configuration/voices).

Write codes as listed: `pt-BR`, not `pt-br`. `mul` (Soniox) is mixed-language media; see
[Transcription](/vod-express/configuration/transcription#mixed-language-media).
