Understanding Hindi AU files
Standard Hindi is based on the Khari Boli dialect of the Delhi region, but everyday speech across northern India shades into related varieties such as Awadhi, Braj, and Bhojpuri. Spoken Hindi also overlaps heavily with Urdu, and urban speakers frequently mix in English ("Hinglish"), so recordings often contain more than one register.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Hindi transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Hindi AU 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 Hindi AU file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Hindi AU file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AU, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Hindi with Sonix:
Why is my Audacity project folder full of small AU files?
Older versions of Audacity split a project's audio into small AU block files inside a _data folder so long tracks could be edited efficiently, and the .aup project file reassembles them in order. Avoid moving or renaming these chunks; open the project and export the audio instead.
How do I play a standalone AU file?
Standalone AU files use the Sun audio format and open in players such as VLC and editors such as Audacity. Converting to WAV or MP3 gives the broadest compatibility with modern software and devices.
Can Sonix transcribe Hindi audio that mixes in English words?
Yes, you can upload Hindi audio and video files and Sonix will transcribe them; because Hindi speakers often switch into English mid-sentence, it is worth reviewing mixed-language passages in the built-in editor before exporting.
Does Sonix output Hindi transcripts in Devanagari script?
Yes, Hindi transcripts are produced in Devanagari, and you can edit them in the browser and export to formats like DOCX, PDF, SRT, and VTT.
Should I choose Hindi or Urdu for my recording?
Spoken Hindi and Urdu overlap heavily, but they are separate language selections with different scripts, so choose the one that matches your recording to get the transcript in the correct writing system.
