Just published: how we built production Sango (Central African Republic) translation without fine-tuning, parallel corpus, or training compute.
The method — vocabulary-augmented prompting with a 581-entry native-speaker-verified lexicon — generalizes to any of the ~2,000 African languages at the same data-poverty level. Recipe, dataset, and code template all included.

Would especially value feedback from anyone working on other low-resource African languages — Ewondo, Lingala, Wolof next on our roadmap.Organizations
