Everyone tried to make Seedance speak Armenian. It did not work. People decided it was impossible.
We found the secret. Give it audio, write the dialogue in latinatar in the prompt, and Seedance 2.5 speaks Armenian. Lips and voice lock.
The rule is one sentence: one dialogue (a person speaking) = one audio file + the same speech in latinatar in the prompt. Without that, Armenian does not work.
Seedance 2.5 shoots. You direct
Seedance shoots one continuous take. You pick camera, light, motion, face, and place. Phone or cinema, both work.
High-quality Seedance video
The full guide on making high-quality Seedance content is separate: Seedance 2.5: the practical guide. Here we keep going with the Armenian speech secret.
The Armenian speech secret
Do it like this.
- Audio. Record the Armenian dialogue yourself, or make it in ElevenLabs. Both are fine.
- One dialogue = one audio. A person speaking is one file. New speech / new shot means new audio.
- Latinatar in the prompt. Write the same speech in Latin letters, the way Armenians type spoken Armenian on a Latin keyboard. It must match the audio.
- Attach the audio to that shot in Seedance 2.5 and generate.
Example latinatar
Barev, yes ai-ov em sarqel ays video-nMeaning: “Hi, I made this video with AI.” Swap your speech. Keep audio and prompt identical.
Prompt skeleton
SINGLE CONTINUOUS TAKE. ONE UNBROKEN SHOT. NO CUTS.

@[Image 2](image_2) = the location. Keep this place exact.

The person speaks this dialogue (latinatar, must match the attached audio exactly):
