The Greek language

Understanding Greek transcription

Who transcribes Greek content?

Greek broadcasters, documentary filmmakers, and podcast producers transcribe interviews and programs for editing and subtitling, while researchers use transcripts for oral history and academic studies. Because Greek is an official language of Greece, Cyprus, and the European Union, legal, government, and EU-related organizations also transcribe Greek proceedings, meetings, and briefings.

Greek dialects and accents

Standard Modern Greek, based on the Demotic variety spoken in Greece, is the form most speech recognition models are trained on. Cypriot Greek differs noticeably in pronunciation and vocabulary, and regional accents from Crete and northern Greece can also vary from the Athens standard.

I love how quick, affordable and accurate it is, but what I like MOST is that the words are highlighted as the recording speaks them!

I tried 3 other tools online and I can say that sonix blows them out of the water. I was very impressed with the ease of use, the % of words correctly translated and how simple it was to make edits to the translation.
