🇹🇭🇺🇸 Typhoon llama3.2 KordTranslate EN-TH 1B
Typhoon llama3.2 KordTranslate EN-TH 1B is a bilingual English ↔ Thai translation model fine-tuned from Typhoon llama3.2 KordTranslate EN-TH 1B for high-quality machine translation between Thai and English.
The model is instruction-tuned specifically for translation tasks using bilingual translation datasets while preserving the strong language understanding inherited from the Typhoon base model.
✨ Features
- 🇺🇸 English → Thai translation
- 🇹🇭 Thai → English translation
- Instruction-tuned for translation
- Built on Typhoon llama3.2 1B
- Lightweight and suitable for local inference

[Your English text here]
Thai → English
Translate the following Thai text to English.
### Thai:
[Your Thai text here]
🐍 Inference Code (Python / Transformers)
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
# Hugging Face repository
model_name = "KordAI/Typhoon-llama3.2-KordTranslate-EN-TH-1B"
# Load tokenizer and model
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
model_name,
torch_dtype="auto",
device_map="auto"
)
prompt = """
Translate the following English text to Thai.
### English:
But friends, I am so gay, that if I had a wife, I would encourage her to cheat on me.
"""
messages = [
{"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
messages,
tokenize=False,
add_generation_prompt=True
)
model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
generated_ids = model.generate(
**model_inputs,
max_new_tokens=512
)
output_ids = generated_ids[0][len(model_inputs.input_ids[0]):]
translation = tokenizer.decode(

).strip()
print(translation)
🏋️ Training
This model is fine-tuned from typhoon-ai/Typhoon-llama3.2-1B using supervised instruction tuning on bilingual English–Thai translation datasets.
The model is trained to perform direct translation between:
- 🇺🇸 English → Thai
- 🇹🇭 Thai → English
while maintaining natural, fluent, and context-aware outputs.
⚠️ Limitations
- Translation quality may decrease on highly specialized domains such as medical, legal, or scientific texts.
- Proper nouns and newly coined terminology may require manual verification.
- The model may occasionally hallucinate or paraphrase ambiguous inputs.
- Human review is recommended for production-critical translations.
