Understanding Hebrew WEBA files
Modern Israeli Hebrew is highly standardized, but pronunciation varies between traditions — some Mizrahi speakers preserve guttural consonants that most Israelis merge. Liturgical and Biblical Hebrew readings differ substantially from everyday conversational speech, which is what speech recognition models are trained on.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Hebrew transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Hebrew WEBA 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 Hebrew WEBA file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Hebrew WEBA file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from WEBA, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Hebrew with Sonix:
Why won't my WEBA file open in some media players?
WEBA plays in most modern browsers, but some desktop players and mobile apps do not recognize the .weba extension even though they can handle WebM audio; renaming the file to .webm often fixes that. Players that genuinely lack WebM support need the file converted to MP3 or WAV instead.
Are WEBA and OGG files the same thing?
No. Both can carry Vorbis or Opus audio, but WEBA uses the WebM (Matroska-based) container while OGG uses the Ogg container, so some tools treat them differently even though the underlying audio codec may be identical.
Can Sonix transcribe Modern Hebrew audio and video?
Yes. Upload your Hebrew audio or video file, and Sonix generates a transcript in Hebrew script that you can review in the built-in editor and export to formats like DOCX, PDF, or SRT.
Does Hebrew transcription handle right-to-left text?
Hebrew is written right-to-left, and Sonix transcripts are produced in Hebrew script. Each word stays linked to its timestamp, so you can click any word to play the audio from that moment while editing.
Can Sonix handle Hebrew speakers who mix in English words?
Modern Israeli speech often includes English loanwords, and short switches are common in interviews and podcasts. Any misrecognized words can be corrected quickly in the editor, with the audio synced word by word for verification.
