Understanding Greek WAV files
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.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Greek transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Greek WAV 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 Greek WAV file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Greek WAV file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from WAV, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Greek with Sonix:
Do I need to convert WAV to MP3 before transcribing?
No, WAV files can be uploaded and transcribed directly. Keeping the original WAV avoids the compression artifacts an MP3 conversion introduces, though the larger file may take longer to upload.
Why are my WAV files so large?
WAV stores uncompressed PCM audio, so CD-quality stereo uses roughly 10 MB per minute. Converting to a compressed format like FLAC or MP3 reduces the size if you need to save space after transcription.
Can Sonix transcribe Cypriot Greek?
Sonix's Greek model is built around Standard Modern Greek, so Cypriot recordings can be transcribed, but dialect-heavy passages may need cleanup in the built-in editor.
Does Sonix output Greek transcripts in the Greek alphabet?
Yes, transcripts are produced in Greek script, and you can edit them in the browser and export to formats like DOCX, PDF, SRT, and VTT.
Can I add English subtitles to a Greek video?
Yes, after transcribing the Greek audio you can translate the transcript into English and export it as SRT or VTT subtitle files.
