# Supported Languages

Below are the available API dialects along with their corresponding request codes that should be used in the API requests:

| Dialect              | Code  |
| -------------------- | ----- |
| **English (US)**     | en-us |
| **English (UK)**     | en-gb |

## Feature coverage by dialect

All dialects support core **pronunciation** scoring, but several endpoints and features are available only for certain dialects. The matrix below summarizes coverage at a glance.

**✓** supported · **✗** not supported. Regional variants **es-MX** and **fr-CA** match their parent dialect (**es-ES**, **fr-FR**) unless noted.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Language scores (grammar, vocabulary, coherence).** For [Score Speech](/api-reference/score-speech.md) — and for the optional `include_speech_score` subscores of [Score Task](/api-reference/score-task.md) — only **pronunciation** and **fluency** are returned for Spanish and French. **Grammar, vocabulary, and coherence** are available for English (en-US, en-GB) only. Task-achievement scoring itself is available for all dialects above.

**Markup (`arpa_mark`).** Markup is supported for **all** dialects, using each dialect's own phonetic notation (see Phonetic notation). **Multiple Choice** — several `\n`-separated options in the `text` — is supported for **all** dialects, on both [Score Word](/api-reference/score-word.md) and [Score Text](/api-reference/score-text.md).
