Understanding Finnish MP2 files
Finnish has two broad dialect groups, Western and Eastern, but the bigger factor for speech recognition is the gap between standard written Finnish (yleiskieli) and everyday spoken Finnish (puhekieli), which shortens words and pronouns. Casual conversational recordings sound noticeably different from scripted broadcast or lecture speech.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Finnish transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Finnish MP2 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 Finnish MP2 file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Finnish MP2 file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from MP2, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Finnish with Sonix:
Why won't my MP2 file play on my phone or computer?
Many modern players omit MPEG Layer II decoders because MP3 largely replaced MP2 outside broadcasting. Players such as VLC still support MP2, or you can convert the file to MP3 or WAV.
Is an MP2 file the same as MPEG-2 video?
No. An .mp2 file contains MPEG Layer II compressed audio only, while MPEG-2 video files typically use extensions like .mpg, .mpeg, or .m2v.
Can Sonix transcribe colloquial spoken Finnish (puhekieli)?
Yes. Sonix transcribes the words as they are spoken, so casual recordings come back in colloquial forms, and you can standardize the spelling in the built-in editor before exporting.
Does Finnish transcription handle long compound words?
Finnish builds long compound and inflected word forms, and Sonix transcribes them as complete words. Any misrecognized rare compounds or proper nouns can be corrected in the editor.
Can Sonix create Finnish subtitles from a video?
Yes. Upload a Finnish video, transcribe it, and export the transcript as SRT or VTT subtitle files that work with most media players and video editing tools.
