Which open models work for Nepali?
Windy Translate lists 0 open translation models into Nepali and 1 from Nepali. All of them can be downloaded from Hugging Face and run on your own hardware. By licence: 1 CC-BY-4.0 (terms and attribution text: licensing). None of them has a screening score yet, so test them on your own text before you rely on them.
With English. English to Nepali: no direct model here. Nepali to English: translate-windy-hplt-ne-en (not yet scored).
Speech-to-text. Whisper's tokenizer lists Nepali as one of its languages, so all 12 multilingual Whisper-based models here can transcribe it: see the speech models. Accuracy differs a lot between languages and model sizes, and this site has not measured speech accuracy.
Each model page has a short snippet to download and run the model yourself, its licence and attribution text, and its score where there is one. Pick the best scored model for your direction, then try it on a few sentences of your own text: a screening score is a starting point, not a guarantee.
