Understanding Dutch OGA 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 OGA 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 OGA file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Dutch OGA file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from OGA, 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 OGA file play on my iPhone or in Apple Music?
Apple's built-in media apps do not include Ogg Vorbis decoders, so OGA files require a third-party player such as VLC or conversion to a supported format like M4A or MP3.
Do I need to convert OGA to MP3 before transcribing it?
No. OGA files can be uploaded directly for transcription; conversion is only needed if you want to play the file in software without Ogg support.
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.
