LISAN (ልሳን) - Offline-First Smart Speech & Machine Translation for Horn of Africa Languages
LISAN is a high-performance, offline-first speech translation system designed for Ethiopian and Horn of Africa languages:
- Amharic (አማርኛ)
- Afaan Oromo
- Somali (Soomaali)
- Tigrinya (ትግርኛ)

The platform combines speech-to-text (STT), automated speech repair & normalization, a hybrid translation engine (exact & fuzzy translation memory + CTranslate2 INT8 NLLB-200), and a modern Flutter mobile client.
