smart formatting in Italian language

it would be very useful to implement this functionality to further refine the transcription of audio in speech to text service.


Currently the transcription is very poor: lack of punctuation, conversion from letters to numbers, lack of recognition of dates.


The Italian language is very poor in functionality compared to the English language.

It was already reported in tickets CS3576728 and CS3313496

    With the new smart_formatting_version feature deployed, we are considering to expand to other languages. No ETA for Italian.
