Understanding Estonian MPA files
Standard Estonian is based on the northern dialect group, which dominates broadcast media and everyday speech. South Estonian varieties such as Võro, Seto, Mulgi, and Tartu diverge substantially — Võro and Seto are sometimes classified as separate languages — so recordings from southeastern Estonia can differ noticeably from the standard.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Estonian transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Estonian MPA 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 Estonian MPA file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Estonian MPA file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from MPA, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Estonian with Sonix:
Why won't my MPA file open in my media player?
Some players do not recognize the .mpa extension or lack an MPEG Layer II decoder. Opening the file in a player such as VLC, or converting it to MP3 or WAV, usually resolves the issue.
Is an MPA file the same as an MP3?
Not exactly. Both are MPEG audio formats, but MPA files typically use Layer II compression while MP3 files use Layer III; many decoders handle both because the standards are closely related.
Can Sonix transcribe Estonian audio and video files?
Yes. Upload an Estonian audio or video file, select Estonian as the language, and Sonix generates a transcript you can edit, search, and export.
Does Estonian transcription handle South Estonian dialects like Võro?
Sonix's Estonian transcription targets standard Estonian, which is based on the northern dialects. Strongly divergent South Estonian varieties such as Võro or Seto may need additional review in the editor.
Can I export Estonian transcripts as subtitles?
Yes. Estonian transcripts can be exported as SRT and VTT subtitle files, as well as document formats like DOCX and PDF.
