Understanding Korean AVI files
Standard South Korean, based on Seoul speech, dominates broadcast media and is what most speech recognition models are trained on. Regional dialects such as Gyeongsang, Jeolla, and Chungcheong differ in intonation and vocabulary, and Jeju speech is divergent enough that linguists often classify it as a separate language.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Korean transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Korean AVI 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 Korean AVI file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Korean AVI file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AVI, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Korean with Sonix:
Do I need to convert my AVI file to MP4 before transcribing it?
No. AVI files can be uploaded directly; the audio track is extracted and transcribed regardless of which video codec the file uses.
Why is my AVI file so large?
AVI files often use little or no compression, and fully uncompressed AVI can occupy multiple gigabytes per minute of video. Re-encoding to a modern container like MP4 reduces the file size considerably if you need to move or store the footage.
Can Sonix transcribe Korean audio and video files?
Yes. Upload your Korean recording and Sonix generates a transcript in Hangul that you can edit in the browser alongside the synced audio, then export to formats like DOCX, PDF, and SRT.
Does Korean transcription handle regional dialects like Gyeongsang or Jeolla?
Automated models are trained primarily on Seoul-standard Korean, so they generally handle regional accents but strong dialect speech may need more editing. You can review and correct those passages in the synced transcript editor.
Can I translate a Korean transcript into English?
Yes. After transcribing, you can translate the Korean transcript into English and other languages within Sonix, then export the translated documents or subtitles.
Trusted by professionals worldwide
I love Sonix. It's accurate, intuitive, friendly and simple to use for the technically inept like me! I typically use it for English but we used it this time in French and it was great too.
What a great transcript experience! I love the work they are doing at Sonix. Their webpage is really simple to use and yet you get everything you need... most of the time there is very little to no editing on the final text.
