Understanding Dutch AIFC files
Netherlands Dutch and Belgian Dutch (Flemish) share one written standard but sound noticeably different — Flemish is spoken with a softer "g" and uses more French-influenced vocabulary. Surinamese Dutch and regional accents like Brabantian add further pronunciation differences, though all are handled as accents of the same Dutch language. Limburgish, by contrast, is officially recognized as a distinct regional language in the Netherlands, so treat it separately from accented standard Dutch.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Dutch transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Dutch AIFC file that you upload to Sonix. Please use high quality recording equipment, recording in a quiet environment, and ensure that your speakers are speaking clearly to ensure that your transcript is as accurate as possible.
Any advice for the Dutch AIFC file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Dutch AIFC file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AIFC, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Dutch with Sonix:
Why won't my AIFC file play on Windows?
Many Windows applications lack decoders for the compression codecs AIFC can contain, such as µ-law, A-law, and G.722. Converting the file to WAV or MP3, or uploading it to a service that decodes AIFC, works around this.
Do I need to convert AIFC to WAV before transcribing?
No. AIFC files can be uploaded directly and are decoded automatically before transcription, so a separate conversion step is not required.
Can Sonix transcribe Flemish (Belgian Dutch)?
Yes. Flemish shares the same written standard as Netherlands Dutch, so Belgian Dutch audio is transcribed with the Dutch language model, and you can adjust regional vocabulary in the transcript editor before exporting.
Is Afrikaans the same as Dutch for transcription?
No. Afrikaans evolved from Dutch but is a distinct language, so choose the language setting that matches your audio rather than treating the two as interchangeable.
Does Dutch transcription handle English words mixed into speech?
Dutch speakers often mix English terms into business and tech conversations, and those loanwords may need light cleanup, which you can do in the built-in editor after the automated transcript is ready.

English dictation is very accurate. And the online editor is easy to use. Also it generates SRT files that I can import in my video editors for further processing.
