It doesn't make sense to have a language-restricted transcription model because of code switching. People aren't machines, we don't stick to our native languages without failure. Even monolingual people move in and out of their native language when using "borrowed" words/phrases. A single-language model will often fail to deal with that.

yeah, one example I run into is getting my perplexity phone assistant to play a song in spanish. I cannot for the life of me get a model to translate: "Play señorita a mi me gusta su style on spotify" correctly
