def on_queue_update(update):
    if isinstance(update, fal_client.InProgress):
        for log in update.logs:
           print(log["message"])

result = fal_client.subscribe(
    "fal-ai/kokoro/italian",
    arguments={

print(result)
```

### JavaScript

```bash
npm install --save @fal-ai/client

const result = await fal.subscribe("fal-ai/kokoro/italian", {
  input: {
    prompt: "Ogni giorno è una nuova opportunità per scrivere la tua storia. Rendila straordinaria!",
