Questions.

Can a Punjabi caller use English words?

Yes, in two ways. Save the agent in Punjabi and every call starts in it. Or keep the agent as it is and hold one call in Punjabi by sending language: "pa" when you start it. The agent’s voice must be Cartesia Sonic or a Sarvam Bulbul voice; any other voice is answered 400 UNSUPPORTED_LANGUAGE. GPT Transcribe or Sarvam Saaras hears the caller.

What does a call in Punjabi cost?

The same as in any other language: $0.07 a minute, whichever voice and model, billed by the second.
